PART I

Item 1.Business

Overview

Southern National Bancorp of Virginia, Inc. (SNBV) is a corporation formed on July 28, 2004 under the laws of the Commonwealth of
Virginia and is the holding company for Sonabank, N. A. (Sonabank) a national bank chartered on April 14, 2005, under the laws of the United States of America. On January 1, 2009, Sonabank changed from a nationally chartered
bank to a state chartered bank and moved its headquarters from Charlottesville to McLean, Virginia. Going forward, Sonabank will be regulated by the State Corporation Commission of Virginia and the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond. Currently, all of
the communities served by Sonabank are located in Virginia, and Sonabank has no lending programs outside Virginia. Moreover, the change should save the company in excess of $35 thousand in regulatory fees per year. The principal activities of
Sonabank are to attract deposits and originate loans. Sonabank conducts full-service banking operations in Charlottesville, Clifton Forge, Leesburg, Warrenton and Fairfax County in Virginia. We also have loan production offices in Charlottesville,
Fredericksburg, Warrenton and Richmond in Virginia. We have administrative offices in Warrenton and an executive office in Georgetown, Washington, D.C where senior management is located.

On December 19th, 2007, SNBV announced that it had entered into an agreement with Founders Corporation of Leesburg, Virginia to purchase certain assets and to assume its lease at 1 East Market Street in Leesburg in the 100 year old
Loudoun National Bank building. Sonabank received approval from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) to open a branch at that location. The branch was opened February 11, 2008. The OCC also approved the opening of a
drive-through/ATM facility that was opened on April 7, 2008.

General

Our principal business is the acquisition of deposits from the general public through our branch offices and deposit intermediaries and the use of these
deposits to fund our loan and investment portfolios. We seek to be a full service community bank that provides a wide variety of financial services to our middle market corporate clients as well as to our retail clients. We are an active commercial
lender, have been designated as a Preferred SBA Lender and participate in the Virginia Small Business Financing Authority lending program. In addition, we are an active commercial real estate lender. We also invest funds in
mortgage-backed securities, securities sold with an agreement to repurchase, reverse repurchase agreements and securities issued by agencies of the federal government.

The principal sources of funds for our lending and investment activities are deposits, amortization and repayment of loans, prepayments from mortgage-backed securities, repayments of maturing investment securities,
Federal Home Loan Bank advances and other borrowed money.

Principal sources of revenue are interest and fees on loans and investment
securities, as well as fee income derived from the maintenance of deposit accounts and income from bank-owned life insurance policies. Our principal expenses include interest paid on deposits and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta
(FHLB) and other borrowings, and operating expenses.

Available Information

SNBV files annual, quarterly and other reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
These reports are posted and are available at no cost on our website, www.sonabank.com, through the Investor Relations link, as soon as reasonably practicable after we file such documents with the SEC. Our filings are also available through
the SECs website at www.sec.gov.

Lending Activities

Our primary strategic objective is to serve small to medium-sized businesses in our market with a variety of unique and useful services, including a full array of commercial mortgage and non-mortgage loans. These
loans include commercial real estate loans, construction to permanent loans, development and builder loans, accounts receivable financing, lines of credit, equipment and vehicle loans, leasing, and commercial overdraft protection. We strive to do
business in the areas served by our branches, which is also where our marketing is focused, and the vast majority of our loan customers are located in existing market areas. Virtually all of our loans are from Virginia, Maryland, West Virginia, or
Washington D.C. The Small Business Administration may from time to time come to us because of our reputation and expertise as an SBA lender and ask us to review a loan outside of our core counties but within our market area. Prior to making a loan,
we obtain loan applications to determine a borrowers ability to repay, and the more significant items on these applications are verified through the use of credit reports, financial statements and confirmations.

The following is a discussion of each of the major types of lending:

Commercial Real Estate Lending

Permanent. Commercial real estate lending includes loans for
permanent financing and construction. Commercial real estate lending typically involves higher loan principal amounts and the repayment of loans is dependent, in large part, on sufficient income from the properties securing the loans to cover
operating expenses and debt service. As a general practice, we require our commercial real estate loans to be secured by well-managed income producing properties with adequate margins and to be guaranteed by responsible parties. We look for
opportunities where cash flow from the collateral properties provides adequate debt service coverage and the guarantors net worth is strong. At December 31, 2008, our commercial real estate loans for permanent financing totaled $104.9
million.

Our underwriting guidelines for commercial real estate loans reflect all relevant credit factors, including, among other things,
the income generated from the underlying property to adequately service the debt, the availability of secondary sources of repayment and the overall creditworthiness of the borrower. In addition, we look to the value of the collateral, while
maintaining the level of equity invested by the borrower.

All valuations on property which will secure loans over $250 thousand are
performed by independent outside appraisers who are reviewed by our executive vice president of risk management and reported annually to our credit committee. We retain a valid lien on real estate and obtain a title insurance policy (on first trust
loans only) that insures the property is free of encumbrances.

Construction. We recognize that construction loans for commercial,
multifamily and other non-residential properties can involve risk due to the length of time it may take to bring a finished real estate product to market. As a result, we will only make these types of loans when pre-leasing or pre-sales or other
credit factors suggest that the borrower can carry the debt if the anticipated market and property cash flow projections change during the construction phase.

Income producing property loans are supported by evidence of the borrowers capacity to service the debt. All of our commercial construction loans are guaranteed by the principals or general partners. At
December 31, 2008, we had $56.6 million of construction, land and development loans.

Construction loan borrowers are generally
pre-qualified for the permanent loan by us or a third party. We obtain a copy of the contract with the general contractor who must be acceptable to us. All plans, specifications and surveys must include proposed improvements. We review feasibility
studies and risk analyses showing sensitivity of the project to variables such as interest rates, vacancy rates, lease rates and operating expenses.

Commercial Business Lending

These loans consist of lines of credit, revolving credit facilities, demand loans, term loans, equipment loans, SBA loans, stand-by letters of credit and unsecured loans. Commercial business loans are generally
secured by accounts receivable, equipment, inventory and other collateral, such as readily marketable stocks and bonds with adequate margins, cash value in life insurance policies and savings and time deposits at Sonabank. At December 31, 2008,
our commercial business loans totaled $60.8 million.

In general, commercial business loans involve more credit risk than residential
mortgage loans and real estate-backed commercial loans and, therefore, usually yield a higher return to us. The increased risk for commercial business loans is due to the type of collateral securing these loans. The increased risk also derives from
the expectation that commercial loans will be serviced principally from the operations of the business, and that those operations may not be successful. Historical trends have shown that these types of loans do have higher delinquencies than
mortgage loans. Because of this, we often utilize the SBA 7(a) program (which guarantees the repayment of up to 85% of the principal and accrued interest to us) to reduce the inherent risk associated with commercial business lending.

Another way that we reduce risk in the commercial loan portfolio is by taking accounts receivable as collateral. Our accounts receivable financing
facilities, which provide a relatively high yield with considerable collateral control, are lines of credit under which a company can borrow up to the amount of a borrowing base which covers a certain percentage of the companys receivables.
From our customers point of view, accounts receivable financing is an efficient way to finance expanding operations because borrowing capacity expands as sales increase. Customers can borrow from 75% to 90% of qualified receivables. In most
cases, the borrowers customers pay us directly. For borrowers with a good track record for earnings and quality receivables, we will consider pricing based on an increment above the prime rate for transactions in which we lend up to a
percentage of qualified outstanding receivables based on reported aging of the receivables portfolio.

We also actively pursue for our
customers equipment lease financing opportunities. We provide financing and use a third party to service the leases. Payment is derived from the cash flow of the borrower, so credit quality may not be any lower than it would be in the case of an
unsecured loan for a similar amount and term.

SBA Lending

We have developed an expertise in the federally guaranteed SBA program. The SBA program is an economic development program which finances the expansion of small businesses. We are a Preferred Lender in the Washington
D.C. and Richmond Districts of the SBA. As an SBA Preferred lender, our pre-approved status allows us to quickly respond to customers needs. Under the SBA program, we originate and fund SBA 7(a) loans which qualify for guarantees up to 85% of
principal and accrued interest. We also originate 504 chapter loans in which we generally provide 50% of the financing, taking a first lien on the real property as collateral.

We provide SBA loans to potential borrowers who are proposing a business venture, often with existing cash flow and a reasonable chance of success. We do
not treat the SBA guarantee as a substitute for a borrower meeting our credit standards, and except for minimum capital levels or maximum loan terms, the borrower must meet our other credit standards as applicable to loans outside the SBA process.

Residential Mortgage Lending

Permanent.To a limited extent, we make fixed and adjustable rate first mortgage loans on
residential properties with terms up to 30 years. In the case of conventional loans, we typically lend up to 80% of the appraised value of single-family residences and require mortgage insurance for loans exceeding that amount. We have no sub-prime
loans. At December 31, 2008, we had $60.4 million of permanent residential mortgage loans. Of that amount, $37.1 million remain from the purchase of 1stService Bank.

We retain a valid lien on real estate and obtain a title insurance policy that insures the property is free of
encumbrances. We also require hazard insurance and flood insurance for all loans secured by real property if the

##### Table of Contents

real property is in a flood plain as designated by the Department of Housing and Urban Development. We also require most borrowers to advance funds on a
monthly basis from which we make disbursements for items such as real estate taxes, private mortgage insurance and hazard insurance.

Construction.We typically make single family residential construction loans to builders/developers in our market areas. Construction loans generally have interest rates of prime plus one to two percent and fees of one to three
points, loan-to-value ratios of 80% or less based on current appraisals and terms of generally nine months or less. In most cases, when we make a residential construction loan to a builder, the residence is pre-sold. All plans, specifications and
surveys must include proposed improvements. Borrowers must evidence the capacity to service the debt.

Consumer Lending

To a limited extent, we offer various types of secured and unsecured consumer loans. We make consumer loans primarily for personal, family or household
purposes as a convenience to our customer base since these loans are not the focus of our lending activities. As a general guideline, a consumers debt service should not exceed 40% of his gross income or 45% of net income. For purposes of this
calculation, debt includes house payment or rent, fixed installment payments, the estimated payment for the loan being requested and the minimum required payment on any revolving debt. At December 31, 2008, we had $3.1 million of consumer
loans.

Credit Approval and Collection Policies

Because future loan losses are so closely intertwined with our underwriting policy, we have instituted what management believes is a stringent loan underwriting policy. Our underwriting guidelines are tailored for particular credit types,
including lines of credit, revolving credit facilities, demand loans, term loans, equipment loans, real estate loans, SBA loans, stand-by letters or credit and unsecured loans. We will make extensions of credit based, among other factors, on the
potential borrowers creditworthiness, likelihood of repayment and proximity to market areas served.

We have a standing Credit
Committee comprised of certain officers, each of whom has a defined lending authority in combination with other officers. These individual lending authorities are determined by our chief executive officer and certain directors and are based on the
individuals technical ability and experience. These authorities must be approved by our board of directors and our credit committee. Our credit committee is comprised of four levels of members: junior, regular, senior, and executive, based on
experience. Our executive members are Ms. Derrico and Messrs. Porter and Stevens. Loans over a certain size must be approved by outside director, Neil Call. (See Management.) Under our loan approval process, the sponsoring loan
officers approval is required on all credit submissions. This approval must be included in or added to the individual and joining authorities outlined below. The sponsoring loan officer is primarily responsible for the customers
relationship with us, including, among other things, obtaining and maintaining adequate credit file information. We require each loan officer to maintain loan files in an order and detail that would enable a disinterested third party to review the
file and determine the current status and quality of the credit.

In addition to approval of the sponsoring loan officer, we require
approvals from one or more members of the Credit Committee on all loans. The approvals required differ based on the size of the borrowing relationship. At least one senior or one executive member must approve all loans in the amount of $100,000 or
more. All three of the executive members of the committee must approve all loans of $1 million or more. Regardless of the number of approvals needed, we encourage each member not to rely on another members approval as a basis for approval and
to treat his approval as if it were the only approval necessary to approve the loan. Our legal lending limit to one borrower is limited to 15% of our unimpaired capital and surplus. We have an internal guidance line of 97% of the legal lending
limit. As of December 31, 2008, our legal lending limit was approximately $9.0 million, although we have no loans to one borrower that approach our legal lending limit to date. Our largest group credit is $8.0 million.

The following collection actions are the minimal procedures which management believes are necessary to
properly monitor past due loans and leases. When a borrower fails to make a payment, we contact the borrower in person, in writing or on the telephone. At a minimum, all borrowers are notified by mail when payments of principal and/or interest are
10 days past due. Real estate and commercial loan borrowers are assessed a late charge when payments are 10-15 days past due. Customers are contacted by a loan officer before the loan becomes 60 days delinquent. After 90 days, if the loan has not
been brought current or an acceptable arrangement is not worked out with the borrower, we will institute measures to remedy the default, including commencing foreclosure action with respect to mortgage loans and repossessions of collateral in the
case of consumer loans.

If foreclosure is effected, the property is sold at a public auction in which we may participate as a bidder. If
we are the successful bidder, we include the acquired real estate property in our real estate owned account until it is sold. These assets are carried at the lower of cost or the fair value net of estimated selling costs. To the extent there is a
decline in value, that amount is charged to operating expense. At December 31, 2008, we had other real estate owned totaling $3.4 million.

Competition

The banking business is highly competitive, and our profitability depends principally on our ability to compete in the market areas in which our banking
operations are located. We experience substantial competition in attracting and retaining savings deposits and in lending funds. The primary factors we encounter in competing for savings deposits are convenient office locations and rates offered.
Direct competition for savings deposits comes from other commercial bank and thrift institutions, money market mutual funds and corporate and government securities which may offer more attractive rates than insured depository institutions are
willing to pay. The primary factors we encounter in competing for loans include, among others, interest rate and loan origination fees and the range of services offered. Competition for origination of loans normally comes from other commercial
banks, thrift institutions, mortgage bankers, mortgage brokers and insurance companies. We have been able to compete effectively with other financial institutions by:



| |  |  | emphasizing customer service and technology;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------



| |  |  | by establishing long-term customer relationships and building customer loyalty; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | by providing products and services designed to address the specific needs of our customers.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Employees

At December 31, 2008, we had 65
full-time equivalent employees, four of whom were executive officers. Management considers its relations with its employees to be good. Neither we nor Sonabank are a party to any collective bargaining agreement.

SUPERVISION AND REGULATION

The business of SNBV and the Bank are subject to extensive regulation and supervision under federal banking laws and other federal and state laws and regulations. In general, these laws and regulations are intended
for the protection of the customers and depositors of the Bank and not for the protection of SNBV or its shareholders. Set forth below are brief descriptions of selected laws and regulations applicable to SNBV and the Bank. These descriptions are
not intended to be a comprehensive description of all laws and regulations to which SNBV and the Bank are subject or to be complete descriptions of the laws and regulations discussed. The descriptions of statutory and regulatory provisions are
qualified in their entirety by reference to the particular statutes and regulations. Changes in applicable statutes, regulations or regulatory policy may have a material effect on SNBV, the Bank and their business.

The Bank Holding Company Act of 1956

Under the Bank
Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (BHCA), SNBV is subject to periodic examination by the Federal Reserve Board (FRB) and required to file periodic reports regarding its operations and any additional information that the FRB may require. Our
activities at the bank holding company level will be limited to:



| |  |  | banking, managing or controlling banks;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------



| |  |  | furnishing services to or performing services for our bank subsidiary; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | engaging in other activities that the FRB has determined by regulation or order to be so closely related to banking as to be a proper incident to these activities.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Some of the activities that the FRB has determined by regulation to be proper incidents to the business of a bank
holding company include making or servicing loans and specific types of leases, performing specific data processing services and acting in some circumstances as a fiduciary or investment or financial adviser. SNBV does not currently plan to perform
any of these activities, but may do so in the future.

With some limited exceptions, the BHCA requires every bank holding company to obtain
the prior approval of the FRB before: (i) acquiring substantially all the assets of any bank; (ii) acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of any voting shares of any bank if after such acquisition it would own or control more
than 5% of the voting shares of such bank (unless it already owns or controls the majority of such shares); or (iii) merging or consolidating with another bank holding company.

In addition, and subject to some exceptions, the BHCA and the Change in Bank Control Act, together with their regulations, require FRB approval prior to
any person or company acquiring control of a bank holding company. Control is conclusively presumed to exist if an individual or company acquires 25% or more of any class of voting securities of the bank holding company. Control is
rebuttably presumed to exist if a person acquires 10% or more, but less than 25%, of any class of voting securities and either has registered securities under Section 12 of the Exchange Act or no other person owns a greater percentage of that
class of voting securities immediately after the transaction. The regulations provide a procedure for challenging this rebuttable control presumption.

In November 1999, Congress enacted the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA), which made substantial revisions to the statutory restrictions separating banking activities from other financial activities. Under the GLBA, bank
holding companies that are well-capitalized and well-managed and meet other conditions can elect to become financial holding companies. As financial holding companies, they and their subsidiaries are permitted to acquire or engage in
previously impermissible activities such as insurance underwriting, securities underwriting and distribution, travel agency activities, insurance agency activities, merchant banking and other activities that the FRB determines to be financial in
nature or complementary to these activities. Financial holding companies continue to be subject to the overall oversight and supervision of the FRB, but the GLBA applies the concept of functional regulation to the activities conducted by
subsidiaries. For example, insurance

activities would be subject to supervision and regulation by state insurance authorities. Although SNBV has not elected to become a financial holding company
in order to exercise the broader activity powers provided by the GLBA, SNBV may elect to do so in the future.

Insurance of Deposits.The Banks deposit accounts have been insured by the FDIC up to a maximum of $100,000 per insured depositor ($250,000 for certain retirement accounts). On October 3, 2008, the FDIC temporarily increased deposit insurance from $100,000
per depositor to $250,000. This increase is effective until December 31, 2009. On October 14, 2008, the FDIC announced the Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program (TLG Program) to strengthen confidence and encourage liquidity in the banking
system. The program consists of two components: a temporary guarantee of newly-issued senior unsecured debt and a temporary unlimited guarantee of funds in noninterest-bearing transaction accounts at FDIC-insured institutions. Sonabank is
participating in the Transaction Account Guarantee Program, but opted not to participate in the Debt Guarantee Program.

Under deposit
insurance reform legislation which became effective in February 2006, deposit insurance coverage will be increased for inflation every five years beginning in 2011. The FDIC issues regulations, conducts periodic examinations, requires the filing of
reports and generally supervises the operations of its insured banks. Any insured bank which is not operated in accordance with, or does not conform to FDIC regulations, policies and directives may be sanctioned for non-compliance. Proceedings may
be instituted against any insured bank or any director, officer or employee of such bank engaging in unsafe and unsound practices including the violation of applicable laws and regulations. The FDIC has the authority to terminate insurance of
accounts pursuant to procedures established for that purpose.

In February 2006, the Federal Deposit Insurance Reform Act of 2005
(Deposit Reform Act) was enacted. The Deposit Reform Act, among other things, consolidates the Bank Insurance Fund and Savings Association Insurance Fund into the DIF, establishes a range for reserves levels for the DIF of 1.15% to 1.50%
and creates a mechanism for raising the ceiling on deposit insurance coverage to reflect future inflation. The FDIC has adopted final regulations with respect to the Deposit Reform Act effective as of January 1, 2007. Under the new deposit
insurance assessment system, the FDIC will evaluate each institutions risk, and therefore its assessment rate, based on three primary sources of information: supervisory ratings for all insured institutions, financial ratios for most
institutions and long-term debt issuer ratings for large institutions that have them. The FDIC assessment rates effective January 1, 2007 range from 0.05% to 0.43% of deposits. The rate paid by Sonabank for 2008 was 0.06% of deposits. The FDIC
also set the designated reserve ratio for the DIF at 1.25% of estimated insured deposits.

For 2007 and 2008, Sonabank qualified for the
best rating, Risk Category I. For banks under $10 billion in total assets in Risk Category I, the 2007 and 2008 deposit assessment ranged from 5 to 7 basis points of total qualified deposits. The actual assessment is dependent upon certain risk
measures as defined in the final rule.

In October 2008, the FDIC published a restoration plan designed to replenish the Deposit Insurance
Fund over a period of five years and to increase the deposit insurance reserve ratio, which decreased to 1.01% of insured deposits on June 30, 2008, to the statutory minimum of 1.15% of insured deposits by December 31, 2013. In order to implement
the restoration plan, the FDIC proposes to change both its risk-based assessment system and its base assessment rates. For the first quarter of 2009 only, the FDIC increased all FDIC deposit assessment rates by 7 basis points. These new rates
range from 12 to 14 basis points for Risk Category I institutions to 50 basis points for Risk Category IV institutions.

Under the
FDICs restoration plan, the FDIC proposes to establish new initial base assessment rates that will be subject to adjustment as described below. Beginning April 1, 2009, the base assessment rates would range from 10 to 14 basis points
for Risk Category I institutions to 45 basis points for Risk Category IV institutions.

Changes to the risk-based assessment system would
include increasing premiums for institutions that rely on excessive amounts of brokered deposits, increasing premiums for excessive use of secured liabilities (including



8

##### Table of Contents

Federal Home Loan Bank advances), lowering premiums for smaller institutions with very high capital levels, and adding financial ratios and debt issuer
ratings to the premium calculations for banks with over $10 billion in assets, while providing a reduction for their unsecured debt.

Either an increase in the Risk Category of Sonabank or adjustments to the base assessment rates could result in a material increase in our expense for federal deposit insurance.

Safety and Soundness. There are a number of obligations and restrictions imposed on bank holding companies and their depository institution
subsidiaries by federal law and regulatory policy that are designed to reduce potential loss exposure to the depositors of such depository institutions and to the FDIC insurance funds in the event that the depository institution is insolvent or is
in danger of becoming insolvent. These obligations and restrictions are not for the benefit of investors. Regulators may pursue an administrative action against any bank holding company or national bank which violates the law, engages in an unsafe
or unsound banking practice or which is about to engage in an unsafe and unsound banking practice. The administrative action could take the form of a cease and desist proceeding, a removal action against the responsible individuals or, in the case
of a violation of law or unsafe and unsound banking practice, a civil penalty action. A cease and desist order, in addition to prohibiting certain action, could also require that certain action be undertaken. Under the policies of the FRB, SNBV is
required to serve as a source of financial strength to the Bank and to commit resources to support the Bank in circumstances where SNBV might not do so otherwise.

Capital Requirements.Each of the FRB and the FDIC has issued risk-based and leverage capital guidelines applicable to banking organizations that it supervises. Under the risk-based capital requirements, SNBV
and the Bank are each generally required to maintain a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets (including specific off-balance sheet activities, such as standby letters of credit) of 8%. At least half of the total capital must be
composed of Tier 1 Capital, which is defined as common equity, retained earnings and qualifying perpetual preferred stock, less certain intangibles. The remainder may consist of Tier 2 Capital, which is defined as specific
subordinated debt, some hybrid capital instruments and other qualifying preferred stock and a limited amount of the loan loss allowance. In addition, each of the federal banking regulatory agencies has established minimum leverage capital
requirements for banking organizations. Under these requirements, banking organizations must maintain a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to adjusted average quarterly assets equal to 3% to 5%, subject to federal bank regulatory evaluation of an
organizations overall safety and soundness. In sum, the capital measures used by the federal banking regulators are:



| |  |  | the Total Risk-Based Capital ratio, which is the total of Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital and Tier 2 Capital;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital ratio; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------



| |  |  | the leverage ratio.
| | - |  | -------------------

Under these
regulations, a national bank will be:



| |  |  | well capitalized if it has a Total Risk-Based Capital ratio of 10% or greater, a Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital ratio of 6% or greater, a leverage ratio of
5% or greater, and is not subject to any written agreement, order, capital directive, or prompt corrective action directive by a federal bank regulatory agency to meet and maintain a specific capital level for any capital measure;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | adequately capitalized if it has a Total Risk-Based Capital ratio of 8% or greater, a Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital ratio of 4% or greater, and a
leverage ratio of 4% or greateror 3% in certain circumstancesand is not well capitalized;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | undercapitalized if it has a Total Risk-Based Capital ratio of less than 8% or greater, a Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital ratio of less than 4% (or 3% in
certain circumstances), or a leverage ratio of less than 4% (or 3% in certain circumstances);
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



9

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | significantly undercapitalized if it has a Total Risk-Based Capital ratio of less than 6%, a Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital ratio of less than 3%, or a
leverage ratio of less than 3%; or
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | critically undercapitalized if its tangible equity is equal to or less than 2% of tangible assets.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The risk-based capital standards of each of the FRB and the FDIC explicitly identify concentrations of credit risk and the risk arising from
non-traditional activities, as well as an institutions ability to manage these risks, as important factors to be taken into account by the agency in assessing an institutions overall capital adequacy. The capital guidelines also provide
that an institutions exposure to a decline in the economic value of its capital due to changes in interest rates be considered by the agency as a factor in evaluating a banking organizations capital adequacy.

Prompt Corrective Action. Under Section 38 of the FDIA, each federal banking agency is required to implement a system of prompt corrective
action for institutions which it regulates. The federal banking agencies (including the FRB and the FDIC) have adopted substantially similar regulations to implement Section 38 of the FDIA. Section 38 of the FDIA and the regulations
promulgated thereunder also specify circumstances under which the FDIC may reclassify a well capitalized bank as adequately capitalized and may require an adequately capitalized bank or an undercapitalized bank to comply with supervisory actions as
if it were in the next lower category (except that the FDIC may not reclassify a significantly undercapitalized bank as critically undercapitalized).

The FRB and the FDIC may take various corrective actions against any undercapitalized bank and any bank that fails to submit an acceptable capital restoration plan or fails to implement a plan accepted by the FRB or
the FDIC. These powers include, but are not limited to, requiring the institution to be recapitalized, prohibiting asset growth, restricting interest rates paid, requiring prior approval of capital distributions by any bank holding company that
controls the institution, requiring divestiture by the institution of its subsidiaries or by the holding company of the institution itself, requiring a new election of directors, and requiring the dismissal of directors and officers.

Payment of Dividends. SNBV is a legal entity separate and distinct from Sonabank. The principal sources of SNBVs cash flow, including cash
flow to pay dividends to its stockholders, are dividends that Sonabank pays to its sole shareholder, SNBV. Statutory and regulatory limitations apply to Sonabanks payment of dividends to us as well as to SNBVs payment of dividends to its
stockholders.

The policy of the Federal Reserve Board that a bank holding company should serve as a source of strength to its subsidiary
banks also results in the position of the Federal Reserve Board that a bank holding company should not maintain a level of cash dividends to its stockholders that places undue pressure on the capital of its bank subsidiary or that can be funded only
through additional borrowings or other arrangements that may undermine the bank holding companys ability to serve as a source of strength. Sonabank has no present plans to pay dividends to SNBV.

Under federal law, the Bank cannot pay a dividend if, after paying the dividend, the bank will be undercapitalized. The bank regulatory
agencies may declare a dividend payment to be unsafe and unsound even though the Bank would continue to meet its capital requirements after the dividend.

The ability of SNBV to pay dividends is also subject to the provisions of Virginia law. The payment of dividends by SNBV and Sonabank may also be affected by other factors, such as the requirement to maintain adequate
capital above regulatory guidelines. The federal banking agencies have indicated that paying dividends that deplete a depository institutions capital base to an inadequate level would be an unsafe and unsound banking practice. Under the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991, a depository institution may not pay any dividend if payment would cause it to become undercapitalized or if it already is undercapitalized. Moreover, the federal agencies have issued
policy statements that provide that bank holding companies and insured banks should generally only pay dividends out of current operating earnings.

Because we are a legal entity separate and distinct from our subsidiary Sonabank, our right to
participate in the distribution of assets of any subsidiary upon the subsidiarys liquidation or reorganization will be subject to the prior claims of the subsidiarys creditors. In the event of a liquidation or other resolution of an
insured depository institution, the claims of depositors and other general or subordinated creditors are entitled to a priority of payment over the claims of holders of any obligation of the institution to its shareholders, arising as a result of
their status as shareholders, including any depository institution holding company (such as us) or any shareholder or creditor thereof.

Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (GLBA) was signed into law on November 12, 1999. The GLBA covers a broad range of issues, including a repeal of most of the restrictions on
affiliations among depository institutions, securities firms and insurance companies. The following description summarizes some of its significant provisions.

The GLBA repeals sections 20 and 32 of the Glass-Steagall Act, thus permitting unrestricted affiliations between banks and securities firms. It also permits bank holding companies to elect to become financial holding
companies. A financial holding company may engage in or acquire companies that engage in a broad range of financial services, including securities activities such as underwriting, dealing, investment, merchant banking, insurance underwriting, sales
and brokerage activities. In order to become a financial holding company, the bank holding company and all of its affiliated depository institutions must be well-capitalized, well-managed and have at least a satisfactory Community
Reinvestment Act rating.

The GLBA provides that the states continue to have the authority to regulate insurance activities, but prohibits
the states in most instances from preventing or significantly interfering with the ability of a bank, directly or through an affiliate, to engage in insurance sales, solicitations or cross-marketing activities. Although the states generally must
regulate bank insurance activities in a nondiscriminatory manner, the states may continue to adopt and enforce rules that specifically regulate bank insurance activities in specific areas identified under the law. Under the new law, the federal bank
regulatory agencies adopted insurance consumer protection regulations that apply to sales practices, solicitations, advertising and disclosures.

The GLBA adopts a system of functional regulation under which the FRB is designated as the umbrella regulator for financial holding companies, but financial holding company affiliates are principally regulated by functional regulators such
as the OCC for national bank affiliates, the SEC for securities affiliates, and state insurance regulators for insurance affiliates. It repeals the broad exemption of banks from the definitions of broker and dealer for
purposes of the Exchange Act. It also identifies a set of specific activities, including traditional bank trust and fiduciary activities, in which a bank may engage without being deemed a broker, and a set of activities in which a bank
may engage without being deemed a dealer. Additionally, the new law makes conforming changes in the definitions of broker and dealer for purposes of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the
Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended.

The GLBA contains extensive customer privacy protection provisions. Under these provisions, a
financial institution must provide to its customers, both at the inception of the customer relationship and on an annual basis, the institutions policies and procedures regarding the handling of customers nonpublic personal financial
information. The new law provides that, except for specific limited exceptions, an institution may not provide such personal information to unaffiliated third parties unless the institution discloses to the customer that such information may be so
provided and the customer is given the opportunity to opt out of such disclosure. An institution may not disclose to a non-affiliated third party, other than to a consumer reporting agency, customer account numbers or other similar account
identifiers for marketing purposes. The GLBA also provides that the states may adopt customer privacy protections that are stricter than those contained in the act.

Privacy

Under the GLBA, financial institutions are required to disclose their policies for
collecting and protecting confidential information. Customers generally may prevent financial institutions from sharing nonpublic personal



11



---

##### Table of Contents

financial information with nonaffiliated third parties except under narrow circumstances, such as the processing of transactions requested by the consumer or
when the financial institution is jointly sponsoring a product or service with a nonaffiliated third party. Additionally, financial institutions generally may not disclose consumer account numbers to any nonaffiliated third party for use in
telemarketing, direct mail marketing or other marketing to consumers. Sonabank has established policies and procedures to assure our compliance with all privacy provisions of the GLBA.

Consumer Credit Reporting

On December 4, 2003, President Bush signed the Fair and Accurate
Credit Transactions Act amending the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act. These amendments to the Fair Credit Reporting Act (the FCRA Amendments) became effective in 2004.

The FCRA Amendments include, among other things:



| |  |  | requirements for financial institutions to develop policies and procedures to identify potential identity theft and, upon the request of a consumer, place a fraud
alert in the consumers credit file stating that the consumer may be the victim of identity theft or other fraud;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | consumer notice requirements for lenders that use consumer report information in connection with risk-based credit pricing programs;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | for entities that furnish information to consumer reporting agencies (which would include Sonabank), requirements to implement procedures and policies regarding the
accuracy and integrity of the furnished information and regarding the correction of previously furnished information that is later determined to be inaccurate; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a requirement for mortgage lenders to disclose credit scores to consumers.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------

The FCRA Amendments also prohibit a business that receives consumer information from an affiliate from using that information for marketing purposes
unless the consumer is first provided a notice and an opportunity to direct the business not to use the information for such marketing purposes (the opt-out), subject to certain exceptions. We do not share consumer information among our affiliated
companies for marketing purposes, except as allowed under exceptions to the notice and opt-out requirements. Because no affiliate of SNBV is currently sharing consumer information with any other affiliate for marketing purposes, the limitations on
sharing of information for marketing purposes do not have a significant impact on us.

Anti-Terrorism and Money Laundering Legislation

Sonabank is subject to the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism of 2001 (the
USA PATRIOT Act), the Bank Secrecy Act and rules and regulations of the Office of Foreign Assets Control (the OFAC). These statutes and related rules and regulations impose requirements and limitations on specific financial transactions and account
relationships intended to guard against money laundering and terrorism financing. Sonabank has established a customer identification program under Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act and the Bank Secrecy Act, and otherwise has implemented
policies and procedures intended to comply with the foregoing rules.

Virginia Law.Certain state corporation laws may have an
anti-takeover affect. Virginia law restricts transactions between a Virginia corporation and its affiliates and potential acquirers. The following discussion summarizes the two Virginia statutes that may discourage an attempt to acquire control of
SNBV.

Virginia Code Sections 13.1-725  727.1 govern Affiliated Transactions. These provisions, with several exceptions
discussed below, require approval by the holders of at least two-thirds of the remaining voting shares of material acquisition transactions between a Virginia corporation and any holder of more than 10% of any class



12

##### Table of Contents

of its outstanding voting shares. Affiliated Transactions include mergers, share exchanges, material dispositions of corporate assets not in the ordinary
course of business, any dissolution of the corporation proposed by or on behalf of an interested shareholder, or any reclassification, including a reverse stock split, recapitalization, or merger of the corporation with its subsidiaries which
increases the percentage of voting shares owned beneficially by any 10% shareholder by more than 5%.

For three years following the time
that a shareholder becomes an owner of 10% of the outstanding voting shares, a Virginia corporation cannot engage in an Affiliated Transaction with that shareholder without approval of two-thirds of the voting shares other than those shares
beneficially owned by that shareholder, and majority approval of the disinterested directors. A disinterested director is a member of the companys board of directors who was (i) a member on the date the shareholder acquired more than 10%,
and (ii) recommended for election by, or was elected to fill a vacancy and received the affirmative vote of, a majority of the disinterested directors then on the board. At the expiration of the three-year period, the statute requires approval
of Affiliated Transactions by two-thirds of the voting shares other than those beneficially owned by the 10% shareholder.

The principal
exceptions to the special voting requirement apply to transactions proposed after the three-year period has expired and require either that the transaction be approved by a majority of the corporations disinterested directors or that the
transaction satisfies the fair-price requirement of the statute. In general, the fair-price requirement provides that in a two-step acquisition transaction, the 10% shareholder must pay the shareholders in the second step either the same amount of
cash or the same amount and type of consideration paid to acquire the Virginia corporations shares in the first step.

None of the
foregoing limitations and special voting requirements applies to a transaction with any 10% shareholder whose acquisition of shares taking him or her over 10% was approved by a majority of the corporations disinterested directors.

These provisions were designed to deter certain takeovers of Virginia corporations. In addition, the statute provides that, by affirmative vote of a
majority of the voting shares other than shares owned by any 10% shareholder, a corporation can adopt an amendment to its articles of incorporation or bylaws providing that the Affiliated Transactions provisions shall not apply to the corporation.
SNBV opted out of the Affiliated Transactions provisions when it incorporated.

Virginia law also provides that shares acquired in a transaction that would cause the acquiring persons voting strength to meet or exceed any of the three thresholds (20%, 331/3% or 50%) have no voting rights for those shares exceeding that threshold, unless granted by a majority vote of shares not owned by the acquiring person. This provision empowers an
acquiring person to require the Virginia corporation to hold a special meeting of shareholders to consider the matter within 50 days of the request. SNBV also opted out of this provision at the time of its incorporation.

Federal Reserve Monetary Policy.The Bank will be directly affected by government monetary and fiscal policy and by
regulatory measures affecting the banking industry and the economy in general. The actions of the FRB as the nations central bank can directly affect the money supply and, in general, affect the lending activities of banks by increasing or
decreasing the cost and availability of funds. An important function of the FRB is to regulate the national supply of bank credit. Among the instruments of monetary policy used by the FRB to implement this objective are open market operations in
United States government securities, changes in the discount rate on member bank borrowings and changes in reserve requirements against bank deposits. These means are used in varying combinations to influence overall growth of bank loans,
investments and deposits, and interest rates charged on loans or paid on deposits. The monetary policies of the FRB have had a significant effect on the operating results of commercial banks in the past and are expected to continue to do so in the
future.

Reserve Requirements.In 1980, Congress enacted legislation that imposed reserve requirements on all depository
institutions that maintain transaction accounts or nonpersonal time deposits. NOW accounts, money



13

##### Table of Contents

market deposit accounts and other types of accounts that permit payments or transfers to third parties fall within the definition of transaction accounts and
are subject to these reserve requirements, as are any nonpersonal time deposits at an institution. For net transaction accounts in 2009, the first $10.3 million will be exempt from reserve requirements. A 3.0% reserve ratio will be assessed on net
transaction accounts over $10.3 million to and including $44.4 million. A 10.0% reserve ratio will be applied to net transaction accounts in excess of $44.4 million. These percentages are subject to adjustment by the FRB.

Transactions with Affiliates. Transactions between banks and their affiliates are governed by Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act. An
affiliate of a bank is any bank or entity that controls, is controlled by or is under common control with such bank. Generally, Sections 23A and 23B (i) limit the extent to which the bank or its subsidiaries may engage in covered
transactions with any one affiliate to an amount equal to 10% of such institutions capital stock and surplus, and maintain an aggregate limit on all such transactions with affiliates to an amount equal to 20% of such capital stock and
surplus, and (ii) require that all such transactions be on terms substantially the same, or at least as favorable, to the bank as those provided to a nonaffiliate. The term covered transaction includes the making of loans, purchase
of assets, issuance of a guarantee and similar other types of transactions. Section 23B applies to covered transactions as well as sales of assets and payments of money to an affiliate. These transactions must also be conducted on
terms substantially the same, or at least favorable, to the bank as those provided to nonaffiliates.

Loans to Insiders.The Federal
Reserve Act and related regulations impose specific restrictions on loans to directors, executive officers and principal shareholders of banks. Under Section 22(h) of the Federal Reserve Act, loans to a director, an executive officer and to a
principal shareholder of a bank, and to entities controlled by any of the foregoing, may not exceed, together with all other outstanding loans to such person and entities controlled by such person, the banks loan-to-one borrower limit. Loans
in the aggregate to insiders and their related interests as a class may not exceed two times the banks unimpaired capital and unimpaired surplus until the banks total assets equal or exceed $100 million, at which time the aggregate is
limited to the banks unimpaired capital and unimpaired surplus. Section 22(h) also prohibits loans, above amounts prescribed by the appropriate federal banking agency, to directors, executive officers and principal shareholders of a bank
or bank holding company, and to entities controlled by such persons, unless such loan is approved in advance by a majority of the board of directors of the bank with any interested director not participating in the voting. The FDIC has
prescribed the loan amount, which includes all other outstanding loans to such person, as to which such prior board of director approval is required, as being the greater of $25,000.00 or 5.0% of capital and surplus (up to $500,000.00).
Section 22(h) requires that loans to directors, executive officers and principal shareholders be made on terms and underwriting standards substantially the same as offered in comparable transactions to other persons. Further, Section 402
of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, with certain exceptions, prohibits loans to directors and executive officers. We do not have any loans to insiders as of December 31, 2008.

Community Reinvestment Act. Under the Community Reinvestment Act and related regulations, depository institutions have an affirmative obligation
to assist in meeting the credit needs of their market areas, including low and moderate-income areas, consistent with safe and sound banking practice. The Community Reinvestment Act requires the adoption by each institution of a Community
Reinvestment Act statement for each of its market areas describing the depository institutions efforts to assist in its communitys credit needs. Depository institutions are periodically examined for compliance with the Community
Reinvestment Act and are periodically assigned ratings in this regard. Banking regulators consider a depository institutions Community Reinvestment Act rating when reviewing applications to establish new branches, undertake new lines of
business, and/or acquire part or all of another depository institution. An unsatisfactory rating can significantly delay or even prohibit regulatory approval of a proposed transaction by a bank holding company or its depository institution
subsidiaries.

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and federal bank regulators have made various changes to the Community Reinvestment Act. Among
other changes, Community Reinvestment Act agreements with private parties must be disclosed and annual reports must be made to a banks primary federal regulatory. A bank holding company will

not be permitted to become a financial holding company and no new activities authorized under the GLBA may be commenced by a holding company or by a bank
financial subsidiary if any of its bank subsidiaries received less than a satisfactory rating in its latest Community Reinvestment Act examination. The Bank received a satisfactory rating in the most recent examination for
Community Reinvestment Act compliances in October 2007.

Fair Lending; Consumer Laws. In addition to the Community Reinvestment Act,
other federal and state laws regulate various lending and consumer aspects of the banking business. Governmental agencies, including the Department of Housing and Urban Development, the Federal Trade Commission and the Department of Justice, have
become concerned that prospective borrowers experience discrimination in their efforts to obtain loans from depository and other lending institutions. These agencies have brought litigation against depository institutions alleging discrimination
against borrowers. Many of these suits have been settled, in some cases for material sums, short of a full trial.

Recently, these
governmental agencies have clarified what they consider to be lending discrimination and have specified various factors that they will use to determine the existence of lending discrimination under the Equal Credit Opportunity Act and the Fair
Housing Act, including evidence that a lender discriminated on a prohibited basis, evidence that a lender treated applicants differently based on prohibited factors in the absence of evidence that the treatment was the result of prejudice or a
conscious intention to discriminate, and evidence that a lender applied an otherwise neutral non-discriminatory policy uniformly to all applicants, but the practice had a discriminatory effect, unless the practice could be justified as a business
necessity.

Banks and other depository institutions also are subject to numerous consumer-oriented laws and regulations. These laws, which
include the Truth in Lending Act, the Truth in Savings Act, the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, the Electronic Funds Transfer Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, and the Fair Housing Act, require compliance by depository institutions with
various disclosure requirements and requirements regulating the availability of funds after deposit or the making of some loans to customers.

The foregoing is only a brief summary of certain statutes, rules, and regulations that may affect SNBV and the Bank. Numerous other statutes and regulations also will have an impact on the operations of SNBV and the Bank. Supervision,
regulation and examination of banks by the regulatory agencies are intended primarily for the protection of depositors, not shareholders.

Future Regulatory Uncertainty.Because federal regulation of financial institutions changes regularly and is the subject of constant legislative debate, we cannot forecast how federal regulation of financial institutions may change
in the future and impact our operations. SNBV fully expects that the financial institution industry will remain heavily regulated in the near future and that additional laws or regulations may be adopted further regulating specific banking
practices.

Item 1A.Risk Factors

We have a limited operating history, which makes it difficult to predict our future prospects and financial performance.

Since we have been operating only three and a half years, we have not experienced a recession of the depth we have now.

We rely, in part, on external financing to fund our operations and the unavailability of such funds in the future could adversely affect our growth strategy and prospects.

Our ability to implement our business strategy will depend on our ability to obtain funding for loan originations, working capital, possible acquisitions
and other general corporate purposes.



15

##### Table of Contents

We do not anticipate that our retail and commercial deposits will be sufficient to meet our funding needs
in the foreseeable future. We therefore rely on deposits obtained through intermediaries, FHLB advances, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and other wholesale funding sources to obtain the funds necessary to implement our growth
strategy.

To the extent we are not successful in obtaining such funding, we will be unable to implement our strategy as planned which
could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Our commercial real estate, construction and
small business loan portfolios have significant type and geographic concentrations and an economic slowdown or depressed residential real estate market in our primary markets could be detrimental to our financial condition.

Almost all of our commercial real estate, construction and business loans are to customers located in Northern Virginia including Fairfax County, as well
as in Richmond, Albemarle County and Charlottesville. In addition, we have loan concentrations in certain types of loans, including land subdivision, lessors of non-residential buildings and new home builders. All of these loans are secured by real
estate in these markets.

Deterioration in economic conditions in these markets or in the housing market could have a material adverse
effect on the quality of these portfolios and the demand for our products and services. In addition, during periods of economic recession, we may experience a decline in collateral values and an increase in delinquencies. Accordingly, the ultimate
collectability of a substantial portion of our commercial loan portfolio is susceptible to economic changes in these markets including increases in interest rates. A significant downturn in the commercial or residential real estate market in these
areas would be detrimental to our financial condition.

In addition, if any of these developments were to result in losses that materially
and adversely affected Sonabanks capital, we and Sonabank might be subject to regulatory restrictions on operations and growth and to a requirement to raise additional capital.

If the value of real estate in our market areas were to decline materially, a significant portion of our loan portfolio could become under-collateralized, which could have a material adverse effect on our asset
quality, capital structure and profitability.

A significant portion of our loan portfolio is comprised of loans secured by either
commercial real estate or single family homes which are under construction. At December 31, 2008, approximately 79% of our loans had real estate as a component of collateral. In the majority of these loans, real estate was the primary
collateral component. In some cases, and out of an abundance of caution, we take real estate as security for a loan even when it is not the primary component of collateral. The real estate collateral that provides an alternate source of repayment in
the event of default may deteriorate in value during the term of the loan. If we are required to liquidate the collateral securing a loan to satisfy the debt during a period of reduced real estate values, our earnings and capital could be adversely
affected. We are subject to increased lending risks in the form of loan defaults as a result of the high concentration of real estate lending in our loan portfolio should the real estate market in Virginia turn downward.

Our business strategy includes strategic growth, and our financial condition and results of operations could be negatively affected if we fail to grow or fail to
manage our growth effectively.

We completed the acquisition of 1stService Bank in December 2006. We intend to continue pursuing a growth strategy for our business. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks,
expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by growing companies such as the continuing need for infrastructure and personnel, the time and costs inherent in integrating a series of different operations and the ongoing expense of acquiring and
staffing new banks or branches. We may not be able to expand our presence in our existing markets or successfully enter new markets

and any expansion could adversely affect our results of operations. Failure to manage our growth effectively could have a material adverse effect on our
business, future prospects, financial condition or results of operations, and could adversely affect our ability to successfully implement our business strategy. Our ability to grow successfully will depend on a variety of factors, including the
continued availability of desirable business opportunities, the competitive responses from other financial institutions in our market areas and our ability to manage our growth. There can be no assurance of success or the availability of branch or
bank acquisitions in the future.

A loss of our executive officers could impair our relationship with our customers and adversely affect our
business.

Many community banks attract customers based on the personal relationships that the banks officers and customers
establish with each other and the confidence that the customers have in the officers. As a relatively new enterprise, we depend on the performance of Ms. Georgia S. Derrico, chairman and chief executive officer, and R. Roderick Porter, who
is the president of SNBV and Sonabank, respectively. Ms. Derrico is a well-known banker in our market areas, having operated a successful financial institution there for more than 18 years prior to founding SNBV and Sonabank. We do not have an
employment agreement with either individual. The loss of the services of either of these officers or their failure to perform management functions in the manner anticipated by our board of directors could have a material adverse effect on our
business. Our success will be dependent upon the boards ability to attract and retain quality personnel, including these officers. We have attempted to reduce our risk by entering into a change in control agreement that includes a
non-competition covenant with Ms. Derrico and Mr. Porter.

Our business is subject to interest rate risk and variations in interest rates
may negatively affect our financial performance.

The majority of our assets and liabilities are monetary in nature and subject us
to significant risk from changes in interest rates. Fluctuations in interest rates are not predictable or controllable. Like most financial institutions, changes in interest rates can impact our net interest income as well as the valuation of our
assets and liabilities. Based on our analysis of the interest rate sensitivity of our assets, an increase in the general level of interest rates may negatively affect the market value of the portfolio equity, but will positively affect our net
interest income since most of our assets have floating rates of interest that adjust fairly quickly to changes in market rates of interest. Additionally, an increase in interest rates may, among other things, reduce the demand for loans and our
ability to originate loans. A decrease in the general level of interest rates may affect us through, among other things, increased prepayments on our loan and mortgage-backed securities portfolios and increased competition for deposits. Accordingly,
changes in the level of market interest rates affect our net yield on interest-earning assets, loan origination volume, loan and mortgage-backed securities portfolios, and our overall results.

Our profitability depends significantly on economic conditions in our market area.

Our success depends to a large degree on the general economic conditions in the Virginia market. The local economic conditions in Virginia have a
significant impact on the loans that we make to our borrowers, the ability of our borrowers to repay these loans, and the value of the collateral securing these loans. A significant decline in general economic conditions caused by inflation,
recession, unemployment or other factors beyond our control would impact these local economic conditions and could negatively affect our financial condition and performance.

In recent years, there has been a proliferation of government contracting, technology and communication businesses in northern Virginia. The last
recession in those industries had a significant adverse impact on a number of those businesses. While we do not have significant credit exposure to these businesses, the recession in these industries could have a negative impact on local economic
conditions and real estate collateral values generally, which could negatively affect our profitability.

There can be no assurance that recently enacted legislation will stabilize the U.S. financial system.

The U.S. Treasury and banking regulators are implementing a number of programs under the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act
of 2008 and otherwise to address capital and liquidity issues in the banking system. There can be no assurance as to the actual impact that these programs will have on the financial markets, including the extreme levels of volatility and
limited credit availability currently being experienced. The failure of these programs to stabilize the financial markets and a continuation or worsening of current financial market conditions could materially and adversely affect our business,
financial condition, results of operations, or access to credit. We may be required to pay higher FDIC premiums than those published for 2009 because market developments have impacted the deposit insurance fund of the FDIC and reduced the ratio
of reserves to insured deposits. See Part I, Item 1, 
BusinessInsurance of Deposits for more information.

Item 5.Market for Registrants Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

On November 6, 2006, SNBV closed on the initial public offering of its common stock, $0.01 par value. The shares of common stock sold in the offering were registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
on a Registration Statement (Registration No. 333-136285) that was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 31, 2006. The shares of common stock were sold at a price to the public of $14.00 per share
(equivalent to $12.73 after the stock dividend declared in May 2007).

SNBVs common stock is traded on the Nasdaq Global Market under
the symbol SONA. Our common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market in November 2006, and the exchange listing was upgraded to the Nasdaq Global Market at the open of trading on December 18, 2007.

There were 6,798,547 shares of our common stock outstanding at the close of business on March 2, 2009, which were held by 203 shareholders of record.

On April 19, 2007, SNBVs Board of Directors approved a 10% stock dividend payable May 18, 2007 to shareholders of record
as of May 2, 2007. All share and per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect the stock dividend. There have been no cash dividends paid.

Item 7.Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations

Managements discussion and analysis is presented to aid the reader in understanding and evaluating the financial
condition and results of operations of SNBV. This discussion and analysis should be read with the consolidated financial statements, the footnotes thereto, and the other financial data included in this report.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements in
this report may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are statements that include projections, predictions, expectations or beliefs
about future events or results or otherwise are not statements of historical fact. Such statements are often characterized by the use of qualified words (and their derivatives) such as expect, believe, estimate,
plan, project, or other statements concerning opinions or judgment of the Company and its management about future events. Although we believe that its expectations with respect to certain forward-looking statements are based
upon reasonable assumptions within the bounds of its existing knowledge of its business and operations, there can be no assurance that actual results, performance or achievements of SNBV will not differ materially from any future results,
performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Actual future results and trends may differ materially from historical results or those anticipated depending on a variety of factors, including, but not limited
to, the effects of and changes in: general economic conditions, the interest rate environment, legislative and regulatory requirements, competitive pressures, new products and delivery systems, inflation, changes in the stock and bond markets,
technology, and consumer spending and savings habits. We do not update any forward-looking statements that may be made from time to time by or on behalf of SNBV.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our accounting policies are in accordance with U. S. generally accepted accounting principles
and with general practices within the banking industry. Management makes a number of estimates and assumptions relating to reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during periods presented. Different assumptions in the application of these methods or policies could result in material changes in our financial statements. As
such, the following policies are considered critical accounting policies for us.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is established and maintained at levels management and the board of directors deem adequate to absorb probable incurred
credit losses from identified and otherwise inherent risks in the portfolio as of the balance sheet date. In assessing the adequacy of the allowance, we review the quality of, and risks in, loans in the portfolio. We also consider such factors as:



| |  |  | composition of the loan portfolio;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------



| |  |  | value and adequacy of the collateral;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------



| |  |  | current economic conditions;
| | - |  | ----------------------------



| |  |  | historical loan loss experience; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------



| |  |  | other known internal and external factors that affect collectability as of the report date.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

An analysis of the credit quality of the loan portfolio and the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is prepared by our executive credit officer and
presented to our board of directors for review and approval on at least a quarterly basis. We may determine, based on our analysis, which includes risk factors such as charge-off rates, past dues, economic concerns, portfolio composition and loan
growth, that our future loan loss provision needs to increase or decrease in order for us to maintain the allowance at a level sufficient to absorb probable

incurred credit losses. If we become aware that any of these factors has materially changed, our estimate of credit losses in the loan portfolio and the
related allowance could also change. The allowance consists of general and unallocated components. The value of the general reserve is based on historical loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors.

While it is our policy to charge off loans in the current period when a loss is considered probable, there are additional risks of future losses which
cannot be quantified precisely or attributed to particular loans or classes of loans. Because these risks include the state of the economy, managements judgment as to the adequacy of the allowance is necessarily approximate and imprecise.

Based on managements calculation, an allowance of $4.2 million, or 1.40% of total loans was an adequate estimate of losses within
the loan portfolio as of December 31, 2008. This estimate resulted in provision for loan losses on the income statement of $1.7 million during 2008. If the mix and amount of future charge off percentages differ significantly from those
assumptions used by management in making its determination, an adjustment to the allowance for loan losses and the resulting effect on the income statement could be material.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Management is required to assess goodwill and other intangible assets
annually for impairment or more often if certain factors are identified which could imply potential impairment. This assessment involves preparing analyses of market multiples for similar operations, and estimating the fair value of the reporting
unit to which the goodwill is allocated. If the analysis results in an estimate of fair value materially less than the carrying value SNBV would be required to take a charge against earnings to write down the asset to the lower fair value. Based on
its assessment completed with the help of an outside investment banking firm, SNBV believes its goodwill of $8.7 million and other identifiable intangibles of $3.1 million are not impaired and are properly recorded in the consolidated financial
statements as of December 31, 2008.

Other Than Temporary Impairment of Investment Securities

Securities are monitored to determine whether a decline in their value is other than temporary. Management utilizes criteria outlined in FAS 115, FSP
157-3 and EITF 99-20 as amended in EITF 99-20-1, such as the probability of collecting amounts due per the contractual terms of the investment security agreement, to determine whether the loss in value is other than temporary. The term other
than temporary is not intended to indicate that the decline in value is permanent. It indicates that the prospects for a near-term recovery of value are not necessarily favorable, or that there is a lack of evidence to support fair values
equal to , or greater than, the carrying value of the investment. Once a decline in value is determined to be other than temporary, the value of the security is reduced and a corresponding charge to earnings is recognized.

Valuation of Deferred Tax Asset

Income taxes are
provided for the tax effects of the transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus changes in deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the basis of the net operating losses carryforward and
allowance for loan losses. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are reflected at income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and
liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes.

Until the second
quarter of 2007, SNBV maintained a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets. During the second quarter of 2007, the valuation allowance on the net deferred tax assets was no longer necessary given the sustained income and growth over the
past six calendar quarters. The tax valuation allowance reversal was $2.5 million, of which $1.9 million was related to the net deferred tax assets obtained in the 1stService Bank acquisition and reduced goodwill.

SNBV adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in
Income Taxes (FIN 48), on January 1, 2007. The adoption of FIN 48 had no effect on our consolidated financial statements. We have no unrecognized tax benefits and do not anticipate any increase in unrecognized benefits
during the next twelve months. Should the accrual of any interest or penalties relative to unrecognized tax benefits be necessary, it is our policy to record such accruals in our income tax accounts; no such accruals exist as of December 31,
2008. SNBV and its subsidiary file a consolidated U. S. federal tax return and a Virginia state income tax return. These returns are subject to examination by taxing authorities for all years after 2004.

OVERVIEW

Southern National Bancorp of Virginia, Inc.
(SNBV) is a corporation formed on July 28, 2004 under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia and is the holding company for Sonabank, N. A. (Sonabank) a national bank chartered on April 14, 2005, under the laws of
the United States of America. On January 1, 2009, Sonabank changed from a nationally chartered bank to a state chartered bank and moved its headquarters from Charlottesville to McLean, Virginia. Going forward, Sonabank will be regulated by the
State Corporation Commission of Virginia and the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond. Currently, all of the communities served by Sonabank are located in Virginia, and Sonabank has no lending programs outside Virginia. Moreover, the change should save
the company in excess of $35 thousand in regulatory fees per year. The principal activities of Sonabank are to attract deposits and originate loans as permitted for federally chartered national banks under the laws of the United States of America.
Sonabank conducts full-service banking operations in Charlottesville, Clifton Forge, Leesburg, Warrenton and Fairfax County in Virginia.

On December 19th, 2007, SNBV announced that it had entered into an agreement with Founders Corporation of Leesburg, Virginia to purchase certain assets and to assume its lease at 1 East Market Street in Leesburg in the 100 year old
Loudoun National Bank building. Sonabank received approval from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) to open a branch at that location. The branch was opened February 11, 2008. The OCC also approved the opening of a
drive-through/ATM facility that was opened on April 7, 2008.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Income

Net income for the year ended
December 31, 2008, was $1.2 million compared to $1.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2007.

Southern National
Bancorps earnings in both 2008 and 2007 were adversely affected by other than temporary impairment (OTTI) charges taken in connection with Freddie Macs Perpetual Preferred Stock. Freddie Mac was taken into conservatorship by the U.S.
Treasury in September 2008 and the U.S. Treasury made the decision to default on the perpetual preferred stocks of both Government-Sponsored Enterprises (GSEs). Absent the Freddie Mac OTTIs Southern National Bancorps earnings were
as follows (in thousands):

|                              |  |      |       |      |   |      

Net income for the year ended December 31, 2007, was $1.7 million compared to $1.0 million in
the year ended December 31, 2006. Income before income taxes for 2007 increased to $1.8 million from $1.0 million in 2006, an increase of 83%.

Net
Interest Income

Our operating results depend primarily on our net interest income, which is the difference between interest and
dividend income on interest-earning assets such as loans and investments, and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities such as deposits and borrowings.

##### Table of Contents

Net interest income for the year ended December 31, 2008 was $12.3 million compared to $10.7 million
for the same period last year. Average interest-earning assets for the year ended December 31, 2008 increased $86.4 million over the same period in 2007. Approximately $63.4 million of this growth was an increase in average loans outstanding.
Average investment securities increased by $15.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2008, compared to the same period last year. The average yield on interest-earning assets decreased from 7.45% in 2007 to 6.43% in 2008 primarily because of
the prime rate decreases of 400 basis points during the 2008 which accompanied the Federal Reserve Boards reductions in its federal funds target rate. Average interest-bearing liabilities for the year ended December 31, 2008 increased
$90.6 million compared to the same period in 2007. Average interest-bearing deposits increased by $62.4 million, while average borrowings increased by $28.3 million compared to 2007. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased from
4.75% in 2007 to 3.70% in 2008. The interest rate spread for the year ended December 31, 2008 increased from 2.70% to 2.73% compared to the same period last year. The net interest margin for the year ended December 31, 2008 decreased to
3.26% from 3.65% compared to the same period last year. The decline in the interest margin was a result of several factors. In addition to the prime rate decreases previously discussed, we have maintained much more cash in interest-earning accounts
at the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta and the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond during the second half of 2008 than we usually do. As of September 30, 2008, we had pre-funded our total brokered certificate of deposit (CD)
maturities through November 2008. As of December 31, 2008, we had pre-funded our brokered CD maturities for January 2009. As a result, our cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2008 were $14.8 million compared to $1.3 million at the
end of last year. The negative carry on our interest-earning deposit accounts cost us 4 basis points. Also, the failure of our Freddie Mac preferred stock to pay dividends during the second half of 2008 cost us 2 basis points.

Net interest income for the year ended December 31, 2007 was $10.7 million compared to $5.9
million for the same period in 2006. Average interest-earning assets for 2007 increased $144.0 million over 2006. Approximately $122.5 million of this growth was an increase in average loans outstanding, most of which was generated by the
acquisition of $90.1 million of loans (net of $17.0 million of securitized loans) from the 1stService Bank merger in December 2006. Average
investment securities increased by $20.4 million in 2007, compared to 2006. The average yield on interest-earning assets increased from 7.29% in 2006 to 7.45% in 2007 primarily because most of the increase in average earning assets was in the higher
yielding loans. Average interest-bearing liabilities for 2007 increased $123.7 million compared to 2006. Average interest-bearing deposits increased by $113.5 million compared to the same period in 2006. We acquired $67.3 million in interest-bearing
deposits in the merger with 1stService Bank. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased from 4.44% in 2006 to 4.75% in 2007. The
interest rate spread for the year ended December 31, 2007 decreased from 2.85% to 2.70% compared to the same period last year. The net interest margin for 2007 decreased to 3.65% from 4.01% compared to the same period last year.

Our commercial loans (non-real estate), acquisition and development loans, construction loans and SBA loans are predominately priced to a spread over the
prime rate. Commercial real estate loans are generally priced at a spread over the one, three or five year constant maturity treasury yield (CMT) or our marginal cost of funds and fixed for one, three or five years. On the liability side of the
balance sheet we have a large segment of our funding which floats; however, the prime rate loans reprice virtually immediately, but the liabilities reprice only at maturity resulting in a lag which can adversely affect net interest income and the
net interest margin when interest rates decline. The decreases in the federal funds target rate during 2007 and 2008 have had a negative impact on our net interest margin. In order to protect the Banks margins, as of November 2008 we have
begun to set floors on all new loans as well as renewals. In addition, Sonabank has reviewed a majority of its home equity lines of credit (HELOCs) to ensure adequate loan-to-value ratios.

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses is a current charge to earnings made in order to increase the allowance for loan losses to a level deemed appropriate by management based on an evaluation of the loan portfolio, current
economic conditions, changes in the nature and volume of lending, historical loan experience and other known internal and external factors affecting loan collectablity. Our loan loss allowance is calculated by segmenting the loan portfolio by loan
type and applying risk factors to each segment. The risk factors are determined by considering peer data, as well as applying managements judgment.

The provision for loan losses charged to operations for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006 was $1.7 million, $1.3 million, and $546 thousand, respectively. We had charge-offs totaling $923 thousand
during 2008, $540 thousand during 2007, and charge-offs during 2006 were $214 thousand. There were recoveries totaling $8 thousand during 2008, and there were no recoveries during 2007 and 2006. The increase in the provision for loan losses during
2008 was due to overall growth in the loan portfolio, charge offs and adverse economic factors.

Noninterest loss was $54 thousand during 2008, compared to income of $357 thousand during 2007.
The decline in noninterest income was largely attributable to the OTTI charge of $1.5 million on the Freddie Mac preferred stock in 2008. Noninterest income for 2008 included gains of $107 thousand from the sale of the guaranteed portion of SBA
loans and gains of $269 thousand from the sale of $15.5 million of available-for-sale mortgage-backed securities. Also during 2008, we had a write-down on other real estate owned (OREO) in the amount of $200 thousand which was offset by gains of $64
thousand on the sales of OREO. Income from account maintenance fees increased due to an increase in the number of accounts. Bank-owned life insurance also increased compared to 2007, as we had a full year of earnings.

The increase in noninterest income in 2007 compared to 2006 was largely attributable to two
factors. First, account maintenance and deposit service fees increased reflecting the impact of the increased number of accounts due in part to the acquisition of 1stService Bank in the fourth quarter of 2006. Second, we purchased a bank-owned life insurance (BOLI) policy during the first quarter of 2007, and we purchased a second policy in July 2007. We owned no BOLI during
2006. Noninterest income was adversely affected in 2007 by an OTTI charge of $440 thousand on the Freddie Mac preferred stock.

In February 2008 Sonabank opened a branch and a drive-through facility in Leesburg, Virginia. The
incremental costs of these facilities were approximately $638 thousand per annum. Despite these additional costs, Southern Nationals efficiency ratio improved from 68.9% for the year ended December 31, 2007 to 67.1% for the year ended
December 31, 2008, excluding the impairment charges, gains on sales of securities, gains on sales of loans and gains/write-downs on OREO. As of December 31, 2008 we had 65 full-time equivalent employees compared to 59 at the end of 2007.
We had seven branches and the Leesburg drive-through facility at year end 2008 compared to six branches at the end of 2007. The increase of $670 thousand in salaries and benefits expense in 2008 compared to 2007 is attributable to staffing the
Leesburg branch and drive-through facility, the deferred compensation plan, and general increases in salaries and benefits. The increase in occupancy expense is attributable to the Leesburg branch and drive-through facility.

Much of the $3.3 million increase in noninterest expense in 2007 over 2006 is attributable to the
acquisition of 1stService Bank in December 2006 and the opening of the Warrenton branch office and the loan production office in Richmond during
2007. As of December 31, 2007 we had 59 full-time equivalent employees compared to 50 at December 31, 2006, following the 1stService
acquisition. At September 30, 2006, we had 32 full-time equivalent employees. We had six branches at year end 2007, compared to two branches prior to the 1stService acquisition in December 2006.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Total assets were $431.9 million as of December 31, 2008, up from $377.3 million as of December 31, 2007. Net loans grew from $257.9 million at
the end of 2007 to $298.0 million at the end of 2008. Total cash and cash equivalents increased from $1.3 million as of December 31, 2007 to $14.8 million at the end of 2008. The increase in cash was intended to build up liquidity to fund
maturities of brokered certificates of deposit.

Total deposits rose from $265.5 million at December 31, 2007, to $309.5 million as of
December 31, 2008. The growth was attributable to an increase in brokered certificates of deposit and other time deposits. Brokered certificates of deposit were $118.3 million at December 31, 2008, compared to $101.3 million at
December 31, 2007. Other time deposits were $106.5 million at the end of 2008 compared to $78.9 at year end 2007.

Loan Portfolio

Loans, net of unearned income, grew from $261.4 million at the end of 2007 to $302.3 million at the end of 2008. Commercial real estate loans grew 20%
from $87.2 million at year end 2007 to $104.9 million at the end of 2008. Non-real estate commercial loans increased 14% from $53.2 million at the end of 2007 to $60.8 million at the end of 2008. Construction and land loans grew 12% from $50.5
million at the end of 2007 to $56.6 million at year end 2008.

Our residential
mortgage loan portfolio increased from $51.9 million at December 31, 2007, to $60.4 million at December 31, 2008. The residential mortgage portfolio includes $37.1 million remaining from the 1stService acquisition. Sonabank is not in the retail residential mortgage origination business, but in the ordinary course of business does provide residential mortgage financing to
its business clients.

Our commercial real estate lending program includes both loans closed under the Small Business
Administration (SBA) 7(a) and 504 loan programs and loans closed outside of the SBA programs that serve both the investor and owner-occupied facility market. The 504 loan program is used to finance long-term fixed assets, primarily real
estate and heavy equipment and gives borrowers access to up to 90% financing for a project. SBA 7(a) loans may be used for the purchase of real estate, construction, renovation or leasehold improvements, as well as machinery, equipment, furniture,
fixtures, inventory and in some instances, working capital and debt refinancing. The SBA guarantees up to 85% of the loan balance in the 7(a) program, and start-up businesses are eligible to participate in the program. During 2008 we closed loans
totaling $6.6 million through the SBAs 7(a) program and $4.4 million under the SBAs 504 program. During 2007 we closed loans totaling $9.6 million through the SBAs 7(a) program and $10.2 million under the SBAs 504 program.

The following table summarizes the composition of our loans, net of unearned income at the dates indicated:

As of December 31, 2008, substantially all of our loans were to customers located in
Virginia. We are not dependent on any single customer or group of customers whose insolvency would have a material adverse effect on operations.

At December 31, 2008 we had $104.9 million in commercial real estate loans, of which approximately 74% were loans secured by owner occupied/operated real estate and 26% were non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans.

Of the owner occupied/operated commercial real estate loans, approximately 39% is secured with retail space including a funeral parlor, a vet clinic,
and a car wash, 25% is office space and 36% is secured by other types of real estate.

Non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans
totaling approximately $26.0 million include a $4.5 million convention center loan, a $5.5 million office building loan.

Past Due Loans and Nonperforming Assets

We will generally place a loan on nonaccrual status when it becomes 90 days past due. Loans will also be placed on nonaccrual status in cases where we are
uncertain whether the borrower can satisfy the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Cash payments received while a loan is categorized as nonaccrual will be recorded as a reduction of principal as long as doubt exists as to future collections.

We maintain appraisals on loans secured by real estate, particularly those categorized as nonperforming loans and potential problem loans.
In instances where appraisals reflect reduced collateral values, we make an evaluation of the borrowers overall financial condition to determine the need, if any, for possible specific allocations or write-down to their net realizable values.
If foreclosure occurs, we record other real estate owned at the lower of our recorded investment in the loan or fair value less our estimated costs to sell.

Our loss and delinquency experience on our loan portfolio has been limited by a number of factors, including our underwriting standards and the relatively short period of time since the loans were originated. Whether
our loss and delinquency experience in the area of our portfolio will increase significantly depends upon the value of the real estate securing loans and economic factors such as the overall economy of the region.

Allowance for Loan Losses

We are very focused on the asset quality of our loan portfolio, both before and after the loan is made. We have established underwriting standards that have proven to be effective in maintaining high credit quality in
our loan portfolio. We have experienced loan officers who take personal responsibility for the loans they underwrite, a standing credit committee that reviews each loan application carefully, and a requirement that loans that are 60% or more of our
legal lending limit must be approved by three executive members of our standing credit committee and an outside director. We have implemented standardized underwriting and credit analysis.

Our allowance for loan losses is established through charges to earnings in the form of a provision for
loan losses. Management evaluates the allowance at least quarterly. In addition, on a quarterly basis our board of directors reviews our loan portfolio, evaluates credit quality, reviews the loan loss provision and the allowance for loan and lease
losses and makes changes as may be required. In evaluating the allowance, management and the Board of directors consider the growth, composition and industry diversification of the portfolio, historical loan loss experience, current delinquency
levels and all other known factors affecting loan collectability.

The allowance for loan losses represents managements estimate of
an amount appropriate to provide for probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio in the normal course of business. We make specific allowances for each loan based on its type and classification as discussed below. However, there are additional
factors contributing to losses that cannot be quantified precisely or attributed to particular loans or categories of loans, including general economic and business conditions and credit quality trends. We have established an unallocated portion of
the allowance based on our evaluation of these factors, which management believes is prudent and consistent with regulatory requirements. Due the uncertainty of risks in the loan portfolio, managements judgment of the amount necessary to
absorb loan losses is approximate. The allowance is also subject to regulatory examinations and determination by the regulatory agencies as to the appropriate level of the allowance.

Our loan review program is conducted by a third party consultant who reports directly to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. In 2008 loan
review reviewed more than 60% of the non-consumer and non-residential loan portfolio outstanding as of December 31, 2007. In 2009 loan review will review at least 60% of the non-consumer and non-residential loan portfolio outstanding as of
December 31, 2008. The purpose of loan review is to validate managements assessment of risk of the individual loans in the portfolio and to determine whether the loan was approved, underwritten and is being monitored in accordance with
the banks credit policy and regulatory guidance. Managements risk assessment of individual loans takes into consideration among other factors, the estimated value of the underlying collateral, the borrowers ability to repay, the
borrowers payment history and current payment status.

Because there are additional risks of losses that cannot be quantified precisely or attributed to
particular loans or types of loans, including general economic and business conditions and credit quality trends, we have established an unallocated portion of the allowance for loan losses based on our evaluation of these risks. The unallocated
portion of our allowance is determined based on various factors including, but not limited to, general economic conditions of our market area, the growth, composition and diversification of our loan portfolio and types of collateral securing our
loans. During 2005, as a de novo bank, we did not have net loss experience of our own so we considered the net loss experience of other commercial banks headquartered in Virginia to determine the unallocated portion of the allowance for loan losses.

We believe that the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2008 is sufficient to absorb probable incurred credit losses in our
loan portfolio based on our assessment of all known factors affecting the collectability of our loan portfolio. Our assessment involves uncertainty and judgment; therefore, the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses cannot be determined with
precision and may be subject to change in future periods. In addition, bank regulatory authorities, as part of their periodic examination, may require additional charges to the provision for loan losses in future periods if the results of their
reviews warrant additions to the allowance for loan losses.

Investment Securities

Our securities portfolio composition is meant to provide a rate-sensitive, stable source of income until we can deploy a large portion of these assets
into underwritten loans. Our securities portfolio also provides us with required liquidity and securities to pledge as required collateral for certain governmental deposits and borrowed funds.

Our securities portfolio is managed by our president and our treasurer, both of whom have significant experience in this area, with the concurrence of
our Asset/Liability Committee. In addition to our president (who is chairman of the Asset/Liability Committee) and our treasurer, this committee is comprised of two outside directors. Investment management is performed in accordance with our
investment policy, which is approved

annually by the Asset/Liability Committee and the board of directors. Our investment policy addresses our investment strategies, approval process, approved
securities dealers and authorized investments. Our investment policy authorizes us to invest in:



| |  |  | Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA), Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC) mortgage-backed
securities (MBS)
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mortgage-backed securities are securities that have been developed by pooling a number of real estate mortgages and which are principally issued by government sponsored entities (GSEs) such as the GNMA, FNMA and
FHLMC. These securities are deemed to have high credit ratings, and minimum regular monthly cash flows of principal and interest are guaranteed by the issuing agencies.

Unlike U.S. Treasury and U.S. government agency securities, which have a lump sum payment at maturity, mortgage-backed securities provide cash flows from regular principal and interest payments and principal
prepayments throughout the lives of the securities. Mortgage-backed securities which are purchased at a premium will generally suffer decreasing net yields as interest rates drop because homeowners tend to refinance their mortgages. Thus, the
premium paid must be amortized over a shorter period. Conversely, mortgage-backed securities purchased at a discount will obtain higher net yields in a decreasing interest rate environment. As interest rates rise, the opposite will generally be
true. During a period of increasing interest rates, fixed rate mortgage-backed securities do not tend to experience heavy prepayments of principal, and consequently the average life of these securities will be lengthened. If interest rates begin to
fall, prepayments will increase.

Collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs) are bonds that are backed by pools of mortgages. The pools can
be GNMA, FNMA or FHLMC pools or they can be private-label pools. The CMOs are designed so that the mortgage collateral will generate a cash flow sufficient to provide for the timely repayment of the bonds. The mortgage collateral pool can be
structured to accommodate various desired bond repayment schedules, provided that the collateral cash flow is adequate to meet scheduled bond payments. This is accomplished by dividing the bonds into classes to which payments on the underlying
mortgage pools are allocated. The bonds cash flow, for example, can be dedicated to one class of bondholders at a time, thereby increasing call protection to bondholders. In private-label CMOs, losses on underlying mortgages are directed to
the most junior of all classes and then to the classes above in order of increasing seniority, which means that the senior classes have enough credit protection to be given the highest credit rating by the rating agencies.

SNBVs corporate bonds consist of pooled trust preferred securities issued by banks, thrifts and insurance companies. The collateral pools of these
trust preferred securities are generally at least 80% banks or thrifts. If the rating is Aaa/AAA, the collateral pool must be at least 60% banks or thrifts. These securities generally have a long term (25 years or more), allow early redemption by
the issuers, make periodic variable interest payments and mature at face value. Trust preferred securities allow the deferral of interest payments for up to five years.

We classify our securities as either: held-to-maturity or available-for-sale. Securities totaling $59.3 million were in the held-to-maturity portfolio at December 31, 2008, compared to
$34.3 million at December 31, 2007. Securities totaling $15.6 million were in the available-for-sale portfolio at December 31, 2008, compared to $40.7 million at December 31, 2007.

Effective July 1, 2008, we transferred $23.9 million par value of bank pooled trust preferred
securities from its securities available for sale portfolio to its securities held to maturity portfolio. The transferred securities had a fair value of $19.1 million at June 30, 2008, and a weighted average maturity of 29 years. As a result of
the transfer, it is expected that $4.0 million of unrealized pre-tax losses associated with the transferred securities that were previously recognized in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) will be recovered in tangible capital over the
remaining life of the securities. Unrealized pre-tax losses in the amount of $65 thousand were recovered during the second half of 2008. It is also expected that there will be no other future impact on Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income,
earnings or capital related to these securities unless the transferred securities are determined to be other than temporarily or permanently impaired.

SNBV owns 80,000 shares of FHLMC perpetual preferred 5.57% stock Series V. Management recognized a $1.5 million other than temporary impairment (OTTI) charge during 2008. We have recorded total OTTI charges on this
security of approximately $2.0 million. Only $24 thousand remained on the books as of December 31, 2008. In accordance with SFAS 115, when a decline in fair value below cost is deemed other than temporary, the unrealized loss must be recognized
as a charge to earnings. As current market conditions make it difficult to precisely forecast a time period for the security to fully recover, an impairment charge was recorded.

As of December 31, 2008 Sonabanks held to maturity investment portfolio included $11.2 million of trust preferred securities in nine issues
which were rated A or above at the time of original purchase. All of the issues owned by Sonabank have one or more investment grade ratings. In these nine issues the underlying collateral is at least 80% bank and thrift holding company collateral.
The underlying collateral includes no REIT collateral.

During the fourth quarter the secondary market for trust preferred securities,
partly as a result of the Treasury failing to protect Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac perpetual preferred stock was in disarray. Mark to market prices of pooled trust preferred securities have fallen to levels which reflect illiquidity and
extreme distress.

All but one of the nine issues owned by Sonabank continue to pay principal and interest in accordance with the
contractual terms of the securities. MMCF XVIII reported new deferrals which caused a failure in the Class A/B Principal Coverage Test. When this happens the cash flows to the lower classes are temporarily suspended and used to pay down the
principal of the senior classes in order to restore the over-collateralization levels of the senior classes. The bonds will continue to accrue interest, but it will be capitalized rather than paid in cash, also known as payment in kind. Interest
will be earned on the capitalized interest. Once the senior class coverage test is satisfied, the lower classes will begin to receive current interest as well as capitalized interest. Accordingly, we did not receive the interest payment on MMCF
XVIII in December 2008 since the deferrals are handled as payments in kind. This security was downgraded to Ca by Moodys but retains a Fitch rating of A-. The fair market value of this security as of December 31, 2008 was $152 thousand,
and the book value was $746 thousand.

Sonabank has evaluated each of these securities for potential impairment under SFAS No. 115 and
EITF 99-20-1. Sonabank has reviewed each of the issues collateral participants using various techniques including the ratings provided in the Bank Financial Quarterly published by IDC Financial Publishing, Inc. Sonabank has also reviewed the
interest and principal coverage of each of the tranches it owns, performing stress tests to determine the adequacy of the collateral. While further deterioration in the entire banking sector is possible, at this time the issues owned by Sonabank
have cushions above the expected defaults or deferrals and are generating cash flows so that it is probable that we will receive all contractual cash flows. If further deterioration occurs in the banking sector, it could change the results of our
analysis and lead to an other than temporary impairment charge.

In addition, we own $7.9 million of the AAA rated tranche of the ALESCO
VII A1B security. The interest coverage ratio on our tranche was 206%. As of December 31, 2008 the fair market value of this security was $4.0 million. Sonabank has evaluated this security for potential impairment under SFAS No. 115 and
determined that an other than temporary impairment does not exist.

##### Table of Contents

Trust preferred securities which are issued by financial institutions and insurance companies are
classified as held-to-maturity securities. The decline in the level of observable inputs and market activity in this class of investments by the measurement date has been significant and resulted in unreliable external pricing. Broker pricing and
bid/ask spreads, when available, vary widely. The once active market has become comparatively inactive. As such, management utilized guidance in FSP FAS 157-3 to value these securities. The pricing for these securities utilized a discount rate from
the Bloomberg Fair Value Index yield curve for single issuer trust preferred securities with similar ratings, interest rates and maturity dates (an observable input). In addition a liquidity premium was utilized to take into account liquidity risk
(a management estimate and thus an unobservable input). Due to current market conditions as well as the limited trading activity of these securities, the market value of the securities is highly sensitive to assumption changes and market volatility.

We also own $2.5 million of the SARM 2005-22 1A2. This CMO is still rated AAA by Standard and Poors but has been downgraded to BBB by
Fitch. As we reported last quarter this security was originated in 2005. The average FICO score of the underlying loans at origination was 748. As of December 31, 2008, delinquencies of more than 60 days, foreclosures, REO and bankruptcies
totaled 21.5% compared to 15.7% at September 30, 2008. However, credit support is 16.55 compared to 14 when originally issued, which provides coverage of 2.44 times projected losses in the collateral. The fair market value is $1.7 million.
Sonabank has evaluated this security for potential impairment under EITF 99-20-1 and determined that an other than temporary impairment does not exist.

Deposits and Other Borrowings

The market for deposits is competitive. We offer a line of traditional deposit products that currently includes non-interest-bearing and interest-bearing checking (or NOW accounts), commercial checking, money market
accounts, savings accounts and certificates of deposit. We compete for deposits through our banking branches with competitive pricing, advertising and online banking. We use deposits as a principal source of funding for our lending, purchasing of
investment securities and for other business purposes.

Non-interest bearing deposits increased from $18.1 million at December 31,
2007, to $23.2 million at December 31, 2008.

Interest bearing deposits rose from $247.4 million at December 31, 2007, to $286.2
million as of December 31, 2008. The growth was attributable to an increase in brokered certificates of deposit and other time deposits. Brokered certificates of deposit were $118.3 million at December 31, 2008, compared to $101.3 million
at December 31, 2007. Other time deposits were $106.5 million at the end of 2008 compared to $78.9 at year end 2007.

We utilize
brokered certificates of deposit and brokered money market deposits and will continue to utilize these sources for deposits when they can be cost-effective. At December 31, 2008 and 2007, these brokered deposits constituted approximately 47.0%
and 48.4% of our total deposits, respectively. The brokered certificates of deposit we typically obtain have terms to maturity of three months to two years. These deposits generally have the effect of slightly increasing our cost of funds and
slightly decreasing our net interest margin when compared to our local deposit base.

The following table sets forth the average balance
and average rate paid on each of the deposit categories for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006:

The variety of deposit accounts we offered has allowed us to be competitive in obtaining funds and
in responding to the threat of disintermediation (the flow of funds away from depository institutions such as banking institutions into direct investment vehicles such as government and corporate securities). Our ability to attract and maintain
deposits, and the effect of such retention on our cost of funds, has been, and will continue to be, significantly affected by the general economy and market rates of interest.

We use borrowed funds, primarily on a short term basis, to support our liquidity needs and to temporarily satisfy our funding needs from increased loan
demand and for other shorter term purposes. One source of these borrowed funds is securities sold under agreements to repurchase, which are reflected at the amount of cash received in connection with the transactions, and may require additional
collateral based on the fair value of the underlying securities pledged. We engage in these transactions with retail customers and with established third parties, primarily large securities brokerage firms. We also are a member of the FHLB and are
authorized to obtain advances from the FHLB from time to time to as needed. The FHLB has a credit program for members with different maturities and interest rates, which may be fixed or variable. We are required to collateralize our borrowings from
the FHLB with our FHLB stock and other collateral acceptable to the FHLB. At December 31, 2008 and 2007, total FHLB borrowings were $30.0 million and $30.5 million, respectively. At December 31, 2008 we had $62.4 million of unused and
available FHLB lines of credit.

Interest Rate Sensitivity and Market Risk

We are engaged primarily in the business of investing funds obtained from deposits and borrowings into interest-earning loans and investments.
Consequently, our earnings depend to a significant extent on our net interest income, which is the difference between the interest income on loans and other investments and the interest expense on deposits and borrowing. To the extent that our
interest-bearing liabilities do not reprice or mature at the same time as our interest-earning assets, we are subject to interest rate risk and corresponding fluctuations in net interest income. We have employed asset/liability management policies
that seek to manage our interest income, without having to incur unacceptable levels of credit or investment risk.

We use a duration gap
of equity approach to manage our interest rate risk, and we review quarterly interest sensitivity reports prepared for us by FTN Financial using the Sendero ALM Analysis System. This approach uses a model which generates estimates of the change in
our market value of portfolio equity (MVPE) over a range of interest rate scenarios. MVPE is the present value of expected cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet contracts using standard industry assumptions about estimated loan
prepayment rates, reinvestment rates and deposit decay rates.

The following tables are based on an analysis prepared by FTN Financial setting forth an analysis of our
interest rate risk as measured by the estimated change in MVPE resulting from instantaneous and sustained parallel shifts in the yield curve (plus or minus 300 basis points, measured in 100 basis point increments) as of December 31, 2008 and
2007:

Our interest rate sensitivity is also monitored by management through the use of a model run by
FTN Financial that generates estimates of the change in the net interest income over a range of interest rate scenarios. Net interest income depends upon the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the
interest rates earned or paid on them. In this regard, the model assumes that the composition of our interest sensitive assets and liabilities existing at December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 remains constant over the period being
measured and also assumes that a particular change in interest rates is reflected uniformly across the yield curve regardless of the duration to maturity or repricing of specific assets and liabilities.

Certain shortcomings are inherent in the methodology used in the above interest rate risk
measurements. Modeling changes in MVPE requires the making of certain assumptions that may or may not reflect the manner in which actual yields and costs respond to changes in market interest rates. Accordingly, although the MVPE tables and
Sensitivity of Net Interest Income tables provide an indication of our interest rate risk exposure at a particular point in time, such measurements are not intended to, and do not, provide a precise forecast of the effect of changes in market
interest rates on our net worth and net interest income.

Liquidity and Funds Management

The objective of our liquidity management is to assure the ability to meet our financial obligations. These obligations include the payment of deposits on
demand or at maturity, the repayment of borrowings at maturity and the ability to fund commitments and other new business opportunities. We obtain funding from a variety of sources, including customer deposit accounts, customer certificates of
deposit and payments on our loans and investments. Historically, our level of core deposits has been insufficient to fully fund our lending activities. As a result, we have sought funding from additional sources, including institutional certificates
of deposit and available-for-sale investment securities. In addition, we maintain lines of credit from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta and utilize securities sold under agreements to repurchase and reverse repurchase agreement borrowings from
approved securities dealers.

We prepare a monthly cash flow report which forecasts weekly cash needs and availability for the coming three
months, based on forecasts of loan closings from our pipeline report and other factors.

During the year ended December 31, 2008, we
funded our financial obligations with deposits, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta. At December 31, 2008, we had $39.0 million of unfunded lines of credit and undisbursed
construction loan funds. Our approved loan commitments were $2.1 million at December 31, 2008. The amount of certificate of deposit accounts maturing in 2009 is $197.4 million as of December 31, 2008. Management anticipates that funding
requirements for these commitments can be met from the normal sources of funds.

Capital Resources

Capital management consists of providing equity to support both current and future operations. We are subject to capital adequacy requirements imposed by
the Federal Reserve and the Bank is subject to capital adequacy requirements imposed by the FDIC. The Federal Reserve and the FDIC have adopted risk-based capital requirements for assessing bank holding company and member bank capital adequacy.
These standards define capital and establish minimum capital requirements in relation to assets and off-balance sheet exposure, adjusted for credit risk. The risk-based capital standards currently in effect are designed to make regulatory capital
requirements more sensitive to differences in risk profiles among bank holding companies and banks, to account for off-balance sheet exposure and to minimize disincentives for holding liquid assets. Assets and off-balance sheet items are assigned to
broad risk categories, each with appropriate relative risk weights. The resulting capital ratios represent capital as a percentage of total risk-weighted assets and off-balance sheet items.

##### Table of Contents

The risk-based capital standards issued by the Federal Reserve require all bank holding companies to have
Tier 1 capital of at least 4.0% and total risk-based capital (Tier 1 and Tier 2) of at least 8.0% of total risk-adjusted assets. Tier 1 capital generally includes common stockholders equity and qualifying
perpetual preferred stock together with related surpluses and retained earnings, less deductions for goodwill and various other intangibles. Tier 2 capital may consist of a limited amount of intermediate-term preferred stock, a limited
amount of term subordinated debt, certain hybrid capital instruments and other debt securities, perpetual preferred stock not qualifying as Tier 1 capital, and a limited amount of the general valuation allowance for loan losses. The sum of Tier 1
capital and Tier 2 capital is total risk-based capital.

The Federal Reserve has also adopted guidelines which supplement the
risk-based capital guidelines with a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to average total consolidated assets, or leverage ratio, of 3.0% for institutions with well diversified risk, including no undue interest rate exposure; excellent asset
quality; high liquidity; good earnings; and that are generally considered to be strong banking organizations, rated composite 1 under applicable federal guidelines, and that are not experiencing or anticipating significant growth. Other banking
organizations are required to maintain a leverage ratio of at least 4.0%. These rules further provide that banking organizations experiencing internal growth or making acquisitions will be expected to maintain capital positions substantially above
the minimum supervisory levels and comparable to peer group averages, without significant reliance on intangible assets.

Under the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991, each federal banking agency revised its risk-based capital standards to ensure that those standards take adequate account of interest rate risk, concentration of credit risk and the risks of
nontraditional activities, as well as reflect the actual performance and expected risk of loss on multifamily mortgages. Under that statute, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation has promulgated regulations setting the levels at which an insured
institution such as the bank would be considered well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized. The bank is
classified well capitalized for purposes of the FDICs prompt corrective action regulations. See Supervision and RegulationCapital Requirements.

The following table provides a comparison of our leverage and risk-weighted capital ratios and the leverage and risk-weighted capital ratios of the bank
at the periods indicated to the minimum and well-capitalized regulatory standards:

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

The financial statements and related financial data presented in this prospectus concerning SNBV have been prepared in accordance with U. S. generally
accepted accounting principles, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars, without considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The primary
impact of inflation on our operations is reflected in increased operating costs. Unlike most industrial companies, substantially all of the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result, changes in interest
rates have a more significant impact on our performance than do the effects of changes in the general rate of inflation and changes in prices. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or in the same magnitude as the prices of
goods and services.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

SNBV is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These
financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve elements of credit and funding risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheet. Letters of credit written
are conditional commitments issued by SNBV to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. We had letters of
credit outstanding totaling $1.6 million and $1.2 million as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Our exposure to credit loss
in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instruments for commitments to extend credit and letters of credit is based on the contractual amount of these instruments. We use the same credit policies in making commitments and
conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. Unless noted otherwise, we do not require collateral or other security to support financial instruments with credit risk.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract.
Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments may expire without being completely drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent
future cash requirements. We evaluate each customers creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. At December 31, 2008 and 2007, we had unfunded loan commitments approximating $41.1 million and $65.3 million, respectively.

|1. | ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
|-- | ------------------------------------------------

Southern National Bancorp of Virginia, Inc. (SNBV) is a corporation formed on July 28, 2004 under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia and is the holding company for Sonabank, N. A. (Sonabank) a national
bank chartered on April 14, 2005, under the laws of the United States of America. On January 1, 2009, Sonabank changed from a nationally chartered bank to a state chartered bank and moved its headquarters from Charlottesville to McLean,
Virginia. Going forward, Sonabank will be regulated by the State Corporation Commission of Virginia and the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond. Currently, all of the communities served by Sonabank are located in Virginia, and Sonabank has no lending
programs outside Virginia. Moreover, the change should save the company in excess of $35 thousand in regulatory fees per year. The principal activities of Sonabank are to attract deposits and originate loans as permitted under applicable banking
regulations. Sonabank conducts full-service banking operations in Charlottesville, Clifton Forge, Leesburg, Warrenton and Fairfax County in Virginia.

The accounting policies and practices of SNBV and subsidiary conform to U. S. generally accepted accounting principles and to general practice within the banking industry. Major policies and practices are described
below:

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SNBV and its wholly owned subsidiary. SNBV is a bank holding company that owns all of the outstanding common stock of its banking subsidiary, Sonabank, N. A. All material
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U. S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these
estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the carrying value of investment securities, other than temporary impairment of
investment securities, the valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, mortgage servicing rights, foreclosed real estate and deferred tax assets.

Investment Securities

Debt securities that SNBV has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as
held-to-maturity and carried at amortized cost.

Securities classified as available for sale are those debt and equity securities that may
be sold in response to changes in interest rates, liquidity needs or other similar factors. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value, with unrealized gains or losses net of deferred taxes, included in accumulated other comprehensive
income (loss) in stockholders equity.

Purchased premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method
over the terms of the securities without anticipating prepayments, except for mortgage-backed securities where prepayments are anticipated. Gains and losses on the sale of securities are recorded on the trade date and are determined using the
specific identification method.

SNBV purchases amortizing investment securities in which the underlying assets are residential mortgage
loans subject to prepayments. The actual principal reduction on these assets varies from the expected contractual



51

##### Table of Contents

principal reduction due to principal prepayments resulting from the borrowers election to refinance the underlying mortgage based on market and other
conditions. The purchase premiums and discounts associated with these assets are amortized or accreted to interest income over the estimated life of the related assets. The estimated life is calculated by projecting future prepayments and the
resulting principal cash flows until maturity. Prepayment rate projections utilize actual prepayment speed experience and available market information on like-kind instruments. The prepayment rates form the basis for income recognition of premiums
and discounts on the related assets. Changes in prepayment estimates may cause the earnings recognized on these assets to vary over the term that the assets are held, creating volatility in the net interest margin. Prepayment rate assumptions are
monitored and updated monthly to reflect actual activity and the most recent market projections.

Declines in the fair value of held to
maturity and available for sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be other than temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses. In estimating other-than-temporary impairment losses, management considers (1) the length of
time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (3) the intent and ability of SNBV to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time
sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.

Loans

SNBV provides mortgage, commercial and consumer loans to customers. A substantial portion of the loan portfolio is represented by non-residential mortgage loans throughout its market area. The ability of SNBVs
debtors to honor their contracts is in varying degrees dependent upon the real estate market conditions and general economic conditions in this area.

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off are carried at their outstanding unpaid principal balances adjusted for the allowance for loan losses,
and any deferred loan fees or costs on originated loans. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the related loan
yield using the interest method without anticipating prepayments.

The accrual of interest on all loans is discontinued at the time the
loan is 90 days delinquent unless the credit is well secured and in process of collection. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual status or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal and interest is considered doubtful.

All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual status or charged-off is reversed against interest income.
The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current
and future payments are reasonably assured.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses (ALLL)

The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management
believes the collection of the principal is unlikely. Recoveries of amounts previously charged-off are credited to the allowance. Managements determination of the adequacy of the allowance is based on historical loss experience adjusted for
current industry and economic conditions and estimates of their affect on loan collectability. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in economic
conditions, particularly those affecting real estate values.

The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific
component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired or loans otherwise classified as substandard or doubtful. The general component covers non-classified loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for current
factors.

##### Table of Contents

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that SNBV
will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the terms of the loan documentation. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the
probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment
delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrowers prior payment record,
and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan by loan basis for commercial and construction loans by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the
loans effective interest rate, the loans obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Individual consumer and residential loans are evaluated for impairment based on regulatory
guidelines.

Servicing Rights

Servicing rights were acquired in connection with the acquisition of 1stService Bank in December 2006, and were recorded at fair value. Fair value is based on market prices for comparable mortgage servicing contracts, when
available, or alternatively, is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The valuation model incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net servicing
income, such as the cost to service, the discount rate, the custodial earnings rate, an inflation rate, ancillary income, prepayment speeds and default rates and losses. SNBV compares the valuation model inputs and results to published industry data
in order to validate the model results and assumptions. All classes of servicing assets are subsequently measured using the amortization method which requires servicing rights to be amortized into non-interest income in proportion to, and over the
period of, the estimated future net servicing income of the underlying loans.

Servicing assets are evaluated for impairment based upon the
fair value of the rights as compared to carrying amount. Impairment is determined by stratifying rights into groupings based on predominant risk characteristics, such as interest rate, loan type and investor type. Impairment is recognized through a
valuation allowance for an individual grouping, to the extent that fair value is less than the carrying amount. If SNBV later determines that all or a portion of the impairment no longer exists for a particular grouping, a reduction of the allowance
may be recorded as an increase to income. Changes in valuation allowances are reported with other noninterest income on the income statement. The fair values of servicing rights are subject to significant fluctuations as a result of changes in
estimated and actual prepayment speeds and default rates and losses.

Servicing fee income which is reported on the income statement as
other noninterest income is recorded for fees earned for servicing loans. The fees are based on a contractual percentage of the outstanding principal and are recorded as income when earned. The amortization of mortgage servicing rights is netted
against loan servicing fee income. Net servicing fee income totaled $38 thousand, $26 thousand and $3 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Late fees and ancillary fees related to loan servicing are not
material.

Bank Premises and Equipment

Bank premises and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization, and land is carried at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method. It is the policy of SNBV to capitalize
additions and improvements and to depreciate the cost thereof over their estimated useful lives ranging from 3 to 30 years. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as they are incurred.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill results from business acquisitions and represents the excess
of the purchase price over the fair value of acquired tangible assets and liabilities and identifiable intangible assets. Goodwill is assessed at least annually for

impairment and any such impairment will be recognized in the period identified. Other intangible assets consist of core deposit intangible assets arising
from whole bank and branch acquisitions. They are initially measured at fair value and then are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which range from 7 to 10 years.

Stock Based Compensation

Compensation cost is recognized for stock options issued to employees,
based on the fair value of these awards at the date of grant. A Black-Scholes model is utilized to estimate the fair value of stock options, Compensation cost is recognized over the required service period, generally defined as the vesting period.
For awards with graded vesting, compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award

Bank-owned Life Insurance

SNBV has purchased life insurance policies on certain key executives. In accordance with EITF
06-5, bank-owned life insurance is recorded at the amount that can be realized under the insurance contract at the balance sheet date, which is the cash surrender value adjusted for other charges or other amounts due that are probable at settlement.

Foreclosed Assets

Assets acquired
through or instead of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. If fair value declines subsequent to foreclosure, a valuation allowance is recorded through expense.
Operating costs after acquisition are expensed.

Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) Stock

The Bank is a member of the FHLB system. Members are required to own a certain amount of stock based on the level of borrowings and other factors, and may
invest in additional amounts. FHLB stock is carried at cost, classified as a restricted security, and periodically evaluated for impairment based on ultimate recovery of par value. Both cash and stock dividends are reported as income.

Long-term Assets

Premises and equipment, core
deposit intangible assets, and other long-term assets are reviewed for impairment when events indicate their carrying amount may not be recoverable from future undiscounted cash flows. If impaired, the assets are recorded at fair value.

Retirement Plans

Employee 401(k) plan expense is
the amount of matching contributions. Deferred compensation plan expense allocates the benefits over years of service.

Loss Contingencies

Loss contingencies, including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, are recorded as liabilities when the
likelihood of loss is probable and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. Management does not believe there now are such matters that will have a material effect on the financial statements.

Equity

Stock dividends in excess of 20% are reported
by transferring the par value of the stock issued from retained earnings to common stock. Stock dividends for 20% or less are reported by transferring the fair value, as of the

ex-dividend date, of the stock issued from retained earnings to common stock and additional paid-in capital. Stock dividends for 20% or less are reported by
transferring the par amount from additional paid in capital to common stock when there is an accumulated deficit. Fractional share amounts are paid in cash with a reduction in retained earnings.

Dividend Restriction

Banking regulations require
maintaining certain capital levels and may limit the dividends paid by the bank to the holding company or by the holding company to shareholders.

Fair
Value of Financial Instruments

Fair values of financial instruments are estimated using relevant market information and other
assumptions, as more fully disclosed in a separate note. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment regarding interest rates, credit risk, prepayments, and other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets
for particular items. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect the estimates.

Operating Segments

While the chief decision-makers monitor the revenue streams of the various products and services, operations are managed and financial performance is
evaluated on a company-wide basis. Discrete financial information is not available other than on a company-wide basis. Accordingly, all of the financial service operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating
segment.

Reclassifications

Some items
in the prior year financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense is the total of the current year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are the expected future tax amounts for the temporary differences between carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities, computed using enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax
assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Until the second quarter of 2007,
SNBV maintained a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets. During the second quarter of 2007, the valuation allowance on the net deferred tax assets was no longer necessary given the sustained income and growth over the past six calendar
quarters. The tax valuation allowance reversal was $2.5 million, of which $1.9 million was related to the net deferred tax assets obtained in the 1stService Bank acquisition.

SNBV adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in
Income Taxes (FIN 48), on January 1, 2007. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is more likely than not that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination
being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. The adoption of FIN 48 had no effect on our consolidated financial statements.

SNBV recognizes interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.

Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows

For purposes
of reporting cash flows, SNBV defines cash and cash equivalents as cash due from banks and interest-bearing deposits in other banks with maturities less than 90 days. Net cash flows are reported for customer loan and deposit transactions and
short-term borrowings.

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share reflects additional common
shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustment to income that would result from the assumed issuance. Potential common shares that may be issued by SNBV relate solely to
outstanding stock options and warrants and are determined using the treasury stock method.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income and other comprehensive income (loss). Other comprehensive income (loss) includes unrealized gains and
losses on securities available for sale which are also recognized as a separate component of equity.

Off Balance Sheet Credit Related Financial
Instruments

In the ordinary course of business, SNBV has entered into commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. The
face amount for these items represents the exposure to loss, before considering customer collateral or ability to repay. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 157, Fair
Value Measurements (FAS 157). This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement establishes a fair value hierarchy about the assumptions used
to measure fair value and clarifies assumptions about risk and the effect of a restriction on the sale or use of an asset. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. In February 2008, the FASB issued Staff
Position (FSP) 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157. This FSP delays the effective date of FAS 157 for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value on a
recurring basis (at least annually) to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The impact of adoption was not material.

In January 2009, the FASB issued FSP EITF 99-20-1 Amendments to the Impairment Guidance of EITF Issue No. 99-20.This FSP amends the
impairment guidance in EITF Issue No. 99-20, Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased Beneficial Interests and Beneficial Interests that Continue to Be Held by a Transferor in Securitized Financial Assets, to achieve
more consistent determination of whether an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred. The FSP also retains and emphasizes the objective of an other-than-temporary impairment assessment and the related disclosure requirements in SFAS
No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, and other related guidance.

In October 2008, the
FASB issued FSP No. 157-3, Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for that Asset Is Not Active.The FSP clarifies the application of FAS 157 in a market that is not active. This guidance was applied to certain
securities in inactive markets to determine fair value. See Note 2.

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 159, The Fair
Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (FAS 159). The standard provides companies with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value and establishes presentation and disclosure requirements
designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. We did not elect the fair value option for any financial assets or financial liabilities as of
January 1, 2008, the effective date of the standard or subsequently.

In September 2006, the EITF finalized Issue No. 06-4,
Accounting for Deferred Compensation and Postretirement Benefit Aspects of Endorsement Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements. This issue requires



56

##### Table of Contents

that a liability be recorded during the service period when a split-dollar life insurance agreement continues after participants employment or
retirement. The required accrued liability will be based on either the post-employment benefit cost for the continuing life insurance or based on the future death benefit depending on the contractual terms of the underlying agreement. This issue is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007. Our adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

On November 5, 2007, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 109, Written Loan Commitments Recorded at Fair Value through Earnings (SAB 109). Previously, SAB 105, Application of
Accounting Principles to Loan Commitments, stated that in measuring the fair value of a derivative loan commitment, a company should not incorporate the expected net future cash flows related to the associated servicing of the loan. SAB
109 supersedes SAB 105 and indicates that the expected net future cash flows related to the associated servicing of the loan should be included in measuring fair value for all written loan commitments that are accounted for at fair value through
earnings. SAB 105 also indicated that internally-developed intangible assets should not be recorded as part of the fair value of a derivative loan commitment, and SAB 109 retains that view. SAB 109 is effective for derivative loan commitments issued
or modified in fiscal quarters beginning after December 15, 2007. The impact of adoption was not material.

In December 2007, the SEC
issued SAB No. 110, which expresses the views of the SEC regarding the use of a simplified method, as discussed in SAB No. 107, in developing an estimate of expected term of plain vanilla share options in accordance
with SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment. The SEC concluded that a company could, under certain circumstances, continue to use the simplified method for share option grants after December 31, 2007. SNBV does not use the simplified method
for share options and therefore SAB No. 110 has no impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Effect of Newly Issued But Not Yet Effective
Accounting Standards:

In December 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (FAS
141(R)), which establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in an acquiree, including
the recognition and measurement of goodwill acquired in a business combination. FAS No. 141(R) is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The adoption of this
standard is not expected to have a material effect on our results of operations or financial position.

In December 2007, the FASB
issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51 (SFAS No. 160), which will change the accounting and reporting for minority
interests, which will be recharacterized as noncontrolling interests and classified as a component of equity within the consolidated balance sheets. FAS No. 160 is effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year beginning on or
after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited, and we do not expect the adoption of FAS No. 160 to have a significant impact on our results of operations or financial position.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of SFAS
No. 133. FAS No. 161 amends and expands the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 133 for derivative instruments and hedging activities. FAS No. 161 requires qualitative disclosure about objectives and strategies for using
derivative and hedging instruments, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of the instruments and gains and losses on such instruments, as well as disclosures about credit-risk features in derivative agreements. FAS No. 161 is
effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on our results of
operations or financial position.

During the year ended December 31, 2008, we sold $15.5 million of available-for-sale
mortgage-backed securities resulting in gross gains of $269 thousand. There were no sales of available-for-sale securities during 2007 and 2006. The tax provision related to these realized gains was $91 thousand.

SNBV owns 80,000 shares of FHLMC perpetual preferred 5.57% stock Series V. SNBV recognized a $1.5 million other than temporary impairment (OTTI) charge
during 2008. We have recorded total OTTI charges on this security of approximately $2.0 million. Only $24 thousand remained on the books as of December 31, 2008. In accordance with SFAS 115, when a decline in fair value below cost is deemed
other than temporary, the unrealized loss must be recognized as a charge to earnings. As current market conditions make it difficult to precisely forecast a time period for the security to fully recover, an impairment charge was recorded.

##### Table of Contents

Effective July 1, 2008, SNBV transferred $23.9 million par value of bank pooled trust preferred
securities from its securities available for sale portfolio to its securities held to maturity portfolio. The transferred securities had a fair value of $19.1 million at June 30, 2008, and a weighted average maturity of 29 years. As a result of
the transfer, it is expected that $4.0 million of unrealized pre-tax losses associated with the transferred securities that were previously recognized in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) will be accreted into tangible capital over the
remaining life of the securities. Unrealized pre-tax losses in the amount of $65 thousand were accreted during the second half of 2008. It is also expected that there will be no other future impact on Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, earnings
or capital related to these securities unless the transferred securities are determined to be other than temporarily or permanently impaired.

The fair value of debt securities and carrying amount, if different, at year end 2008 by contractual maturity were as follows (in thousands). Securities not due at a single maturity date, primarily mortgage-backed securities and
collateralized mortgage obligations, are shown separately.

Securities with a carrying amount of approximately $55.8 million and $45.2 million at
December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits, repurchase agreements and a line of credit for advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (FHLB).

SNBV monitors the portfolio which is subject to liquidity needs, market rate changes and credit risk changes to see if adjustments are needed. As
outlined in the table below, there are 17 securities with stated maturities totaling approximately $19.7 million in the portfolio that are considered temporarily impaired at December 31, 2008. Management has concluded that the fair value is
expected to recover as the securities approach their maturity date and/or market conditions improve, and management has the positive intent and ability to hold to recovery. All the securities continue to perform according to the contractual terms
except for MMCF XVIII which has deferred interest payments (see discussion in subsequent paragraphs). The following tables present information regarding securities in a continuous unrealized loss position as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 (in
thousands) by duration of time in a loss position:

As of December 31, 2008 Sonabanks investment portfolio included $11.2 million of trust
preferred securities in nine issues which were rated A or above at the time of original purchase. All of the issues owned by Sonabank have one or more investment grade rating. In these nine issues the underlying collateral is at least 80% bank and
thrift holding company collateral. The underlying collateral includes no REIT collateral.

All but one of the nine issues owned by Sonabank
continue to pay principal and interest in accordance with the contractual terms of the securities. MMCF XVIII reported new deferrals which caused a failure in the Class A/B Principal Coverage Test. When this happens the cash flows to the lower
classes are temporarily suspended and used to pay down the principal of the senior classes in order to restore the over-collateralization levels of the senior classes. The bonds will continue to accrue interest, but it will be capitalized rather
than paid in cash, also known as payment in kind. Interest will be earned on the capitalized interest. Once the senior class coverage test is satisfied, the lower classes will begin to receive current interest as well as capitalized
interest. Accordingly, Sonabank did not receive the interest payment on MMCF 18 in December 2008 since the deferrals are handled as payments in kind. This security was downgraded to Ca by Moodys but retains a Fitch rating of A-.
The fair market value of this security as of December 31, 2008 was $152 thousand, and the book value was $746 thousand.

Sonabank has
evaluated each of these securities for potential impairment under EITF 99-20-1. Sonabank has reviewed each of the issues collateral participants using various techniques including the ratings provided in the Bank Financial Quarterly published
by IDC Financial Publishing, Inc. Sonabank has also reviewed the interest and principal coverage of each of the tranches it owns. While further deterioration in the entire banking sector is possible, at this time the issues owned by Sonabank have
cushions above the expected defaults or deferrals and are generating cash flows so that it is probable that we will receive all contractual cash flows.

In addition, we own $7.9 million of the AAA rated tranche of the ALESCO VII A1B security. The interest coverage ratio on our tranche was 206%. As of December 31, 2008 the fair market value of this security was
$4.0 million. Sonabank has evaluated this security for potential impairment under SFAS No. 115 and determined that an other than temporary impairment does not exist.

We also own $2.5 million of the SARM 2005-22 1A2. This CMO is still rated AAA by Standard and Poors but has been downgraded to BBB by Fitch. As we
reported last quarter this security was originated in 2005. The average FICO score of the underlying loans at origination was 748. As of December 31, 2008, delinquencies of more than 60 days, foreclosures, REO and bankruptcies totaled 21.5%
compared to 15.7% at September 30, 2008. However, credit support is 16.55 compared to 14 when originally issued, which provides coverage of 2.44 times projected losses in the collateral. The fair market value is $1.7 million. Sonabank has
evaluated this security for potential impairment under EITF 99-20-1 and determined that an other than temporary impairment does not exist.

|5. | FAIR VALUE
|-- | ----------

FAS 157 establishes a fair value
hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement
date

Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted
prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3:
Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entitys own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability

Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below:

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at
fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy:

Securities

Where quoted prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities would
include highly liquid government bonds, mortgage products and exchange traded equities. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, or
discounted cash flow. Level 2 securities would include U. S. agency securities, mortgage-backed securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions and certain corporate, asset-backed and other securities. In certain cases where there is
limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation, securities are classified within level 3 of the valuation hierarchy. Currently, all of SNBVs available-for-sale securities are considered to be level 2 securities.

Assets and Liabilities Measured on a Non-recurring Basis:

Impaired Loans

SFAS 157 applies to
loans measured for impairment using the practical expedients permitted by SFAS 114 at the fair value of the loans collateral (if the loan is collateral dependent). Fair value of the loans collateral, when the loan is dependent on
collateral, is determined by appraisals or independent valuation which is then adjusted for the cost related to liquidation of the collateral. Fair value is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. After charge offs during the period in
the amount of $290 thousand and allocated allowance for loan losses totaling $378 thousand, loans identified as impaired in accordance with SFAS 114 totaled $974 thousand as of December 31, 2008.

Carrying amount is the estimated fair value for cash and cash equivalents, accrued interest
receivable and payable, demand deposits, short-term debt, and variable rate loans that reprice frequently and fully. For fixed rate loans or deposits and for variable rate loans with infrequent repricing or repricing limits, fair value is based on
discounted cash flows using current market rates applied to the estimated life. It was not practicable to determine the fair value of Federal Reserve Bank and Federal Home Loan Bank stock due to restrictions placed on its transferability. Fair value
of long-term debt is based on current rates for similar financing. The fair value of off-balance-sheet items is not considered material.

Trust preferred securities which are issued by financial institutions and insurance companies are classified as held-to-maturity securities. The decline in the level of observable inputs and market activity in this class of investments by
the measurement date has been significant and resulted in unreliable external pricing. Broker pricing and bid/ask spreads, when available, vary widely. The once active market has become comparatively inactive. As such, management utilized guidance
in FSP FAS 157-3 to value these securities. The pricing for these securities utilized a discount rate from the Bloomberg Fair Value Index yield curve for single issuer trust preferred securities with similar ratings, interest rates and maturity
dates (an observable input). In addition a liquidity premium was utilized to take into account liquidity risk (a management estimate and thus an unobservable input). Due to current market conditions as well as the limited trading activity of these
securities, the market value of the securities is highly sensitive to assumption changes and market volatility.

The adjustment to the beginning fair value of acquired servicing rights in 2007 was made to
goodwill during the allocation period and resulted from the finalization of the estimated fair value analysis.

Fair value of servicing
rights was $605 thousand and $690 thousand at year-end 2008 and 2007. Fair value at 2008 was determined using discount rates ranging from 12.50% to 17.36% and prepayment speeds ranging from 149.9% to 224.5%. Fair value at 2007 was determined using
discount rates ranging from 12.50% to 15.86% and prepayment speeds ranging from 174.8% to 287.0%.

The weighted average amortization period
is 7 years. Estimated amortization expense for each of the next five years is (in thousands):

During the third quarter of 2008 we sold approximately $1.8 million of the guaranteed portion of
some SBA loans and recognized servicing assets in the amount of $40 thousand. These assets are being amortized over the remaining lives of the loans, and the unamortized servicing asset at December 31, 2008 was $37 thousand which approximates

Until the second quarter of 2007, SNBV
maintained a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets. During the second quarter of 2007, the valuation allowance on the net deferred tax assets was no longer necessary given the sustained income and growth over the past six calendar
quarters. The tax valuation allowance reversal was $2.5 million, of which $1.9 million was related to the net deferred tax assets obtained in the 1stService Bank acquisition.

At December 31, 2008, SNBV had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $3.2 million
which expire in 2026. We have no unrecognized tax benefits and do not anticipate any increase in unrecognized benefits during the next twelve months. Should the accrual of any interest or penalties relative to unrecognized tax benefits be necessary,
it is our policy to record such accruals in our income tax accounts; no such accruals existed as of December 31, 2008 or 2007. SNBV and its subsidiary file a consolidated U. S. federal tax return, and SNBV files a Virginia state income tax
return. These returns are subject to examination by taxing authorities for all years after 2004.

The income tax expense differed from the amount of income tax determined by applying the U.S. Federal
income tax rate of 34% to pretax income for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006 due to the following (in thousands):

|13. | EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
|--- | -----------------

SNBV has a 401(k) plan that
allows employees to make pre-tax contributions for retirement. The 401(k) plan provides for discretionary matching contributions by SNBV. Expense for 2008 and 2007 was $60 thousand and $52 thousand, respectively. In 2006 there were no matching
contributions made by SNBV. The 401(k) does not provide for investment in SNBV stock.

A deferred compensation plan that covers two
executive officers was established in 2007. Under the plan, the Bank pays each participant, or their beneficiary, the amount of compensation deferred plus accrued interest over 10 years, beginning with the individuals retirement. A liability
is accrued for the obligation under these plans. The expense incurred for the deferred compensation in 2008 and 2007 was $160 thousand and $65 thousand, respectively. The deferred compensation liability was $226 thousand and $65 thousand as of
December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.



|14. | STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
|--- | ------------------------

In 2004, the Board of
Directors adopted a stock option plan that authorized the reservation of up to 302,500 shares of common stock and provided for the granting of stock options to certain directors, officers and employees. The options granted to officers and employees
are incentive stock options and the options granted to non-employee directors are non-qualified stock options. The purpose of the plan is to afford key employees an incentive to remain in the employ of SNBV and to assist in the attracting and
retaining of non-employee directors by affording them an opportunity to share in SNBVs future success. Under the plans, the options exercise price cannot be less than the fair market value of the stock on the grant date. The maximum term
of the options is ten years and options granted may be subject to a graded vesting schedule.

The fair value of each option granted is
estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes options-pricing model. The following weighted-average assumptions were used to value options granted:



|                                               |  |      |          |   |      |   |          |      |  |

| |  |  | We have paid no dividends.
| | - |  | --------------------------



| |  |  | Due to SNBVs short existence, the volatility was estimated using historical volatility of comparative publicly traded financial institutions in the Virginia
market for periods approximating the expected option life.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The risk-free interest rate was developed using the U. S. Treasury yield curve for periods equal to the expected life of the options on the grant date. An increase
in the risk-free interest rate will increase stock compensation expense on future option grants.

As of December 31, 2008, unrecognized compensation expense associated with stock options was
$128 thousand which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 4 years.



|15. | WARRANTS
|--- | --------

As part of the purchase price of the
fixed assets related to the Leesburg branch, SNBV issued 61,000 warrants for the purchase of its common stock at an exercise price of $12.73 per share during the first quarter of 2008. The warrants expire in three years. The fair value of each
warrant issued was estimated using the Black-Scholes options-pricing model. As a result of issuing the warrants, $51 thousand was recorded as Additional paid in capital. The following weighted-average assumptions were used to value the warrants:



|                                        |  |   |         |

|Weighted average fair value per warrant |  | $ | 0.84    |  



|16. | FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK
|--- | -------------------------------------------------

SNBV is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of
credit. These instruments involve elements of credit and funding risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheet. Letters of credit are written conditional commitments issued by SNBV to guarantee the performance of a
customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. We had letters of credit outstanding totaling $1.6 million and $1.2 million as of
December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Our exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the
financial instruments for commitments to extend credit and letters of credit is based on the contractual amount of these instruments. We use the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet
instruments. Unless noted otherwise, we do not require collateral or other security to support financial instruments with credit risk.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments are made predominately for adjustable rate loans, and generally have fixed
expiration dates of up to three months or other termination clauses and usually require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments may expire without being completely drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future
cash requirements. We evaluate each customers creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis.

At December 31, 2008 and 2007, we had unfunded lines of credit and undisbursed construction loan
funds totaling $39.0 million and $54.5 million, respectively. Our approved loan commitments were $2.1 million and $10.8 million at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Virtually all of our unfunded lines of credit, undisbursed construction
loan funds and approved loan commitments are variable rate.

are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatoryand possibly additional discretionaryactions by regulators
that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on SNBVs financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action (PCA), SNBV must meet specific capital guidelines that involve
quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about
components, risk weightings and other factors. Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holding companies. At December 31, 2008 and 2007, the most recent regulatory notifications categorized the Bank as well capitalized
under regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy
require SNBV to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of Total and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of December 31, 2008, that SNBV meets all capital adequacy requirements to
which it is subject.

SNBVs principal source of funds for dividend payments is dividends received from the Bank.
Banking regulations limit the amount of dividends that may be paid without prior approval of regulatory agencies. Under these regulations, the amount of dividends that may be paid in any calendar year is limited to the current years net
profits, combined with the retained net profits of the preceding two years, subject to the capital requirements described above. During 2009, the Bank could, without prior approval, declare dividends of approximately $1.7 million plus any 2009 net
profits retained to the date of the dividend declaration.

Item 9.Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial
Disclosure

Previously reported under Item 4.01 in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 7, 2007.

Item 9A.Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.SNBV maintains disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the
Exchange Act). In designing and evaluating its disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute,
assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of
possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in
achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that
SNBVs disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may
not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the
policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of SNBVs internal control over financial reporting as
of December 31, 2008. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on the assessment
using those criteria, management concluded that the internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2008. This annual report does not include an attestation report of the companys registered public accounting
firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Managements report was not subject to attestation by the companys registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that
permit the company to provide only managements report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial
Reporting. There was no change in the internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2008 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal control over
financial reporting.

Item 9B.Other Information

None.
